Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and means for collecting, storing, retrieving and using statistical information about use of specified services via a user communication device.
  • Services available for communication devices can be divided in two: internal services and external services.
  • Internal services are services that are applicable independent of any communication network, i.e. services integrated in or connected to the communication device and immediately applicable as such.
  • External services are services that are applicable only in connection with an external network, i.e. services that are dependent on applications external to the communication device. Examples of internal services are games, text processing programs, phone books, etc. None of these services require any external connection to other appliances in order to be used. Examples of external services are telephone calls, searches on the Internet, w show incoming number" services for telephones, etc. These services all require a connection between the communication device and one or more service providers that provides the specified services.
  • the manufacturer of the user's communication device provides the communication device with a certain number of services immediately applicable.
  • An example of such services is the "show number" service in a telephone, either a mobile telephone or a stationary telephone. This service would often be immediately applicable from the manufacturer of the telephone.
  • the service will only be available for the user of the telephone if the operator owing or leasing the telephone line offers the N ⁇ show number" service to its customer, mostly by requiring a fee for the service.
  • the user is dependent on the operator. It is also possible for the user to get or buy service products, such as computer programs or external devices that can be connected to the user's communication device for performing specified operations, which, after they are installed or connected to the communication device, can be used for that specified service free of charge.
  • Examples of such service products are computer programs that can be installed in the communication device from a CD-rom or downloaded from e.g. the Internet, and external devices, such as web cameras, MP3 player, radios, etc. that are connectable to the user' s communication device and which then can be used free of charge.
  • An operator owing or leasing the communication line may though bill the user if that communication line is used in connection with the use of the service product.
  • the manufacturers of communication devices and of service products usable with the communication device have an interest in obtaining statistical information about the use of such devices or services.
  • Such statistical information shows the user' s use of the devices or services and this information is very useful for the manufacturer m developing new devices or services since it may reflect new needs and wishes from the user.
  • a further advantage for the manufacturer of devices or services is that the statistical information about the use of the devices or services can be used for billing the user for the use of these specified devices or services. This opportunity will prompt the manufacturer even more to develop new devices or services that m turn gives the user an even wider range of products or services to chose between.
  • the statistical information about the use of specified devices or services should be available for the user. Thereby the user can check the use of the devices and services for his own information and can also check the correctness of any bill sent from a service provider or a service provider collaborator.
  • the object of the invention is achieved by a method of collecting, storing and retrieving statistical information about use of at least one specified service for a user communication device, said service being provided by a specified service provider, said method comprises the steps of: internally in the user communication device collecting specified statistical information about the use of the specified service,
  • the statistical information is stored in a database that is integrated in the user communication device. This means that the service provider must have access to the user's communication device in order to extract relevant data. Thereby the user will be * sitting like a spider in the web", since all informations are stored in the user's communication device.
  • the statistical information is transmitted to and stored in a database located externally in relation to the user communication device, preferably at a server connected to an infranet, such as the Internet, from where the user as well as the service provider can retrieve relevant statistical information.
  • a database located externally in relation to the user communication device, preferably at a server connected to an infranet, such as the Internet, from where the user as well as the service provider can retrieve relevant statistical information.
  • the database would typically be owned by a service provider.
  • the user communication device is a mobile radio station, such as a mobile telephone.
  • the service provider specifically uses the statistical information retrieved from the database to bill the user for use of the specified services.
  • the invention specifies an arrangement of devices for collecting, storing and retrieving statistical information about use of at least one specified service provided by a service provider, which arrangement comprises a user communication device using the specified service.
  • This arrangement further comprises: a transaction server integrated m the user communication device, said transaction server being able to collect and at least temporarily store said statistical information, said user communication device having access to the stored statistical information, and - a service provider communication device having access to the stored statistical information.
  • the user communication device is preferably provided with means for transmitting the statistical information to a database to which service provider communication device has access to said database.
