    Abstract: A method (200), system (100) and portable device (110) for mobile subscripti on content access by storing (112) information enabling access to subscription content, transmitting to a terminal (120) the information enabling access to subscription content, and delivering the subscription information (for example, by receiving at the device from the terminal) the subscription content obtained using the transmitted information enabling access to subscription content. Preferably the transmission and reception are automati c and the received subscription content is cached in the portable device for subsequent use. The portable device is conveniently provided with extended functionality based on the received subscription content. This provides the advantages of (i) a single device as opposed to multiple smartcards, (ii) immediate availability compared with conventional smartcards which take time to be issued, (iii) security as the portable device is associated with the user through biometrics, photo, fingerprints or the like, (iv) automated announcement of arrival or presence, and (v) automatic speculative download or caching of subscribed content based on locally stored subscription data.

    Abstract: A method for providing mobile subscription content access is disclosed. Initially, subscription contents are stored in a server. The subscription content can be accessed via any terminal coupled to the server by a communication link. In response to an access to any of the subscription contents on an encrypted subscription channel via a terminal, a determination is made as to whether or not a valid receiver is found in the proximity of the terminal. If a valid receiver is found in the proximity of the terminal, an encryption/decryption key is transferred to the valid receiver. With the encryption/decryption key, the subscription contents on an encrypted subscription channel can be accessed via the terminal and the valid receiver.

    Abstract: An electronic location tag comprises stored data which includes an identifier. The data is transmitted to an attached data processing system through an interface. The attached data processing system is adapted to initiate an inventory action responsive to receiving the identifier. The electronic location tag is adapted to be physically attached to the item for which an inventory is to be maintained.
