The user preferably can formulate different plans come from different data source data download (as per hour, weekly, jede Woche or the like), and be preferably this plan and can select by the user.The download plan can be disposable incident, or repeats event with required optional frequency.
The present invention is particularly suitable for utilizing a mobile computing device, as a personal digital assistant and a mobile phone, implements.But mobile computing device and mobile phone also can be formed a device.
According to a further aspect in the invention, a kind of system that is used for automatically downloading data to wireless mobile computing device also is provided, this system comprises: according to the scheduled plan that is stored in the described mobile computing device memory storage, automatically mobile computing device is connected to the device of the Internet by a mobile phone; And by the device of the Internet from tentation data source download desired data, the address in desired data source is stored among the described memory storage of this mobile computing device.
Described memory storage comprises the memory zone, is used for the another name and the information of interest of memory dialing number, desired data source address, download plan and described data source.And this system can also comprise the device of editing memory storage area content.
According to a further aspect in the invention, the combination of a kind of wireless mobile computing device and mobile phone also is provided, wherein said mobile computing device comprises: region of memory be used to store desired data download address details, and storage is used to carry out the plan from this address data download; Be used to edit the device of described region of memory content; With according to described plan described mobile computing device is connected to the Internet to carry out the device of described download by described mobile phone.
According to a further aspect in the invention, also provide a kind of mobile computing device, this mobile computing device comprises: region of memory be used to store desired data download address details, and storage is used to carry out the plan from this address data download; Be used to edit the device of described region of memory content; With according to described plan described mobile computing device is connected to the Internet to carry out the device of described download by a mobile phone.
Below with reference to accompanying drawing embodiments of the invention are described.
Description of drawings
Fig. 1 is the explanation first embodiment of the invention PDA process flow diagram of download plan automatically.
Fig. 2 is corresponding to one embodiment of the present of invention, is presented at a series of exemplary screen on the PDA.
Embodiment
An importance of the present invention at least in a preferred form of the invention, is that the present invention allows consumer premise to download.The user can download message details and when download and be input to a PDA.For example, Fig. 2 has showed the typical serial screen that can be presented on the PDA.
Shown in Fig. 2 .1, this screen has a top and shows, shows the selected station address that is used to customize download.In addition, also can provide a series of preset information bags and it is shown in the Lower Half of screen.These preset bag and can comprise from this locality of a series of approvals or news, financial information and the Weather information of overseas data source.The user can be from be stored in PDA these preset in the bag and select, also can select any combination from the data in these sources, upgrade with the interruption of determining according to the user.
But, except these preset information sources, the user can also by input the details of interested website and data source customize download.For example, in Fig. 2 .2 to 2.5, shown that a series of screens show, wherein the user imports an order at each 03:30 visit on Thursday www.cnn.com.The URL of this website is added to the screen portions that download address is stored in demonstration in advance then with an another name " US news " input.Provide another name can help the user to read screen, because the another name of brief easily note is than a long easier reading in URL address and a memory.
Shown in Fig. 2 .6 to 2.10, also can edit existing memory address in advance.In these figure, an address is selected from memory address tabulation in advance, then editor.Shown in Fig. 2 .11 to 2.14, described plan, promptly time of Xia Zaiing and frequency also can be edited by the user.The time of any download and frequency can be edited as required.The download plan can be set to disposable incident, or repeats event with any required frequency.Different downloads, the connection of promptly arriving different websites can have different download plans.It is also understood that and to delete the address stored that is used to download, shown in Fig. 2 .15 to 2.18.
As mentioned above, except the download of customization, also can be the predetermined selection that PDA provides standard download, for example, local news, world news, financial and economic news, finance and economics comment, financial information and weather (local, the world).Also this preset information can be handled the particular demands that satisfies the user, shown in Fig. 2 .19 to 2.23.For example, the user's weather that can select to download specific stock market information, town maybe can be selected the news from particular locality.
Shown in Fig. 2 .24 to 2.28, a sub-group of addresses that is used to download can be appointed as one " interested " group, and the clauses and subclauses in the interested tabulation are edited (Fig. 2 .29 to 2.33).As for any other address, information of interest also can be set to download at required time and interval.
At last, shown in Fig. 2 .34 to 2.40, can retrieve downloaded files at any time.
Fig. 1 has showed a process flow diagram, illustrates how to download automatically.Be appreciated that this PDA in its local storage, comprised be used to store automatic download necessary data the zone.This storage area 1 comprises four sub regions, is respectively: zone 2 is used to store the dialed number of connection PDA to server; Zone 3 is used to store consumer premise and downloads be provided with (as address, time), zone 4, the details that is used to store information of interest and another name; With zone 5, be used to store the file that presets bag that has comprised as the plug-in unit link.
In order to begin automatic download, the routine of plan is activated, and reads in the data file that is stored in the storage area 1.Then, this routine is checked the time according to the internal clocking of PDA, is that perhaps whether this routine is to be manually started by the user because be activated make a plan time of file in download according to the user to determine whether this routine.At latter event, this routine hypothesis user wishes by increasing or by revising or the deletion downloaded files of wanting, manually importing or editing data.
If it is owing to planned once to download that this routine is determined the startup of routine, then this routine advances to access phase, utilize a dialed number in this stage routine, setting up a Internet to server by a mobile phone connects, this mobile phone is connected with described PDA, if attempt connection failure for the first time, then allow to attempt three times.After connection is finished, all addresses that rotation visit is used to download, and updated information downloaded to this PDA.
After finishing download, this routine checks when storage area is intended in to determine to download next time, and for this time download is set the time.Then, this routine withdraws from.Also can be PDA Auto Power On and automatic shutdown function are provided, start, finish then automatic down operation.
Be appreciated that the present invention, among its preferred form, allow PDA to have the function of enhancing at least.Can the download of information of wide range be set pre-establishing in the works by the user.The standard plug-in unit bag of common needs can be provided, and conversely, this plug-in unit bag also can be by customization.Download can be set to disposable incident, also can be set to the repetition event.
