Benefits of technology

[0005] Certain embodiments of the present invention provide a connection module such as a telecom battery. This module may include an interface for connection to an electronic device, a transceiver

Problems solved by technology

Historically, portable electronic devices and plug in components offering connectivity to at least one network have lacked the functionality to efficiently and effectively manage resources and network connections.
These devices have failed to deal adequately with issues such as managing continuous connectivity using multiple connection options without excessive user interaction.
Moreover, prior devices, software, and business arrangements do not offer secured, software-solution specific connectivity.

Embodiment Construction

[0012] Certain embodiments of the present invention are physical connection modules, also referred to as telecom batteries. These devices are used to add network connectivity capability to an electronic device such as a mobile computer, a PDA, a digital camera, a music player, or a vending machine by providing at least one connection to one or more networks, whether physical connections or wireless. A connection module may provide connections by including the necessary software, hardware, and / or airtime to connect to one or more carrier networks. The connection module may also be used to add additional network connectivity capabilities to an electronic device already having some network connectivity abilities. Certain embodiments of the present invention relate to application-driven connection modules that allow clients to have network connectivity to an application server and enable only the intended software application to operate between the clients and the server.
