Embodiment Construction

[0021] A preferred embodiment of the present invention will now be described with reference to Figures 1 to 4 of the drawings. The same parts in the various figures are marked with the same reference numerals.

[0022] As shown in FIG. 1, a cell phone 10 receives a SMARTCARD (smart card) 11 which, as shown in FIG. 3, cooperates with the cell phone to enable communication with a communication network. A SMARTCARD includes a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module). The SMARTCARD identifies the user of the communication system and is used to verify that the user is one of the allowed users on the network. The SMARTCARD may also encrypt communications between the cellular telephone 10 and the communications network. The alphanumeric keys 12 of the cell phone allow entry of information into the cell phone memory and are the preferred means for entering erasure codes.

[0023] The elements of the SMARTCARD shown in Figure 2 include: data communication circuitry, logic circuitry, and dis...
