Embodiment Construction

[0013] The present invention is directed to providing audio messages or delivering the audio in small segments using a chunking technique. The invention involves splitting said audio message into several segments or blocks. First, when a user requests to download the audio message, two chunks are downloaded immediately. Once the first two chunks are delivered, playback of the first chunk to the user begins. While the first piece is being played, a third piece is downloaded. Once playback of the first chunk is complete, playback of the second chunk begins, the third chunk is fully downloaded, and downloading of the next chunk is initiated.

[0014] Advantageously, aspects and embodiments of the present invention provide a seamless audio interface that appears to the user to have no significant playback delay. The delivery of the audio may be done using a TCP / IP protocol that can provide ordering and retransmission, or some other similar or similarly functional protocol that ...

Abstract

A voice mail system that allows for the delivery of voice messages by chunks, thereby optimizing the delivery of the information. When a subscriber attempts to listen to his or her voice mail message, the header information for the first voice mail message is down loaded and played back to the subscriber. While the subscriber listens to the header information, the next two blocks of data of the voice message are downloaded. Upon the completion of the playback of the header information, the first two blocks of the voice mail message are available for playback and the first block is immediately available for playback. As the subscriber listens to the voice mail message subsequent blocks of the first voice mail message, and optionally header information and blocks of subsequent voice mail messages are simultaneously down loaded. Thus, the subscriber is able to seamlessly listen to the voice mail messages without a delay in the retrieval of the voice mail messages regardless of the order the subscriber listens to the messages.

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Patent Provisional Application, filed June 30, 2004, entitled "AUDIO CHUNKING" and assigned Serial No. 60 / 584,058, which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] none Background technique [0004] Alexander Graham Bell describes his successful experiments with the telephone in a notebook entry dated March 10, 1876. Talk to his assistant Thomas A. Watson in the next room through the device. Bell famously uttered the first words "Mr. Watson ~ come here ~ I want to see you." Ever since, engineers, marketers and consumers have sought the faster delivery of more information over telecommunications and / or computer networks. In a short period of time, we have moved from 300 baud modems delivering data to homes to full-fledged T1 carriers, cable modems, and DSL lines delivering data to consumers at millions of bits per second. [0005] While technological advances...
