Further, as shown in FIG. 33, the receiving means M3
When 31 receives the transmission destination identifier, the transmission source identifier and the like transmitted from the mobile phone M1 from the mobile phone M1 (step RC301), the third transmission means M306 transmits an advertisement to the mobile phone M1 identified by the transmission source identifier. (Step RC302). Then, the erasing means M333 investigates the data erasing request, and if the information received together with the destination identifier includes the data erasing request (step RC30).
3) Further, it is checked whether it is partially erased or all erased (step R
C304), if it is partially erased, the stored designated data is erased (step RC305), and
The third storage means M based on the transmission destination identifier and the transmission source identifier received by the updating means M332 by the receiving means M331.
The data of 304 is updated (step RC307), the billing information is generated (step RC308), and the process ends. On the other hand, if all are erased (step RC304), all stored data are erased (step RC30).
6) Generate billing information (step RC308) and end. If the data erasing request is not included, the updating means M332 updates the data in the third storage means M304 based on the destination identifier and the source identifier received by the receiving means M331 (step RC30).
7), generate billing information (step RC308), and end.

In this way, unnecessary data can be erased, and resources such as the external storage device 311 can be effectively used.
