ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method for enhancing the use of a computer network which is accessed by use of a wireless device. Specifically, one embodiment of the present invention pertains to a method of using server-resident software assistants, programs to assist the wireless device user, to perform a significant amount of the tedious input tasks required when wireless devices such as PDAs attempt to exploit the services available on the Internet. The method provides a mechanism by which software assistants can be programmed to a users' own specific information and ways of performing tasks that exploit Internet services such as purchasing, information searches, event planning and complex scheduling. The task can be organized in structural task lists that interface with a user's stored preferences and PIM information on the portable electronic device.
