Abstract
Systems and methods for initiating telephony calls are presented. In one example, a user selection of a desired application item is received at a computing device and a dial number associated with the desired application item is transmitted from the computing device to a wireless headset. The dial number is received at the wireless headset and a call is responsively initiated by transmitting the dial number from the wireless headset to a mobile phone device.
Claims18
A communication device comprising:
- a wireless transceiver;
- a microphone;
- a speaker;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing a call initiation application executable by the processor configured to receive a dial number from a first computing device over a first wireless link and transmit an outbound call command to a second computing device over a second wireless link, the outbound call command comprising the dial number.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having computer-executable instructions stored thereon which, when executed by one or more computers, cause the one more computers to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a dial number from a first computing device transmitted over a first wireless link;
- and
- transmitting an outbound call command to a second computing device over a second wireless link, the outbound call command comprising the dial number to initiate a call by the second computing device to the dial number.
