See full text

A system and method for a communication apparatus to provide advanced features such as dual mode capability, billing options for communication charges (for instance reverse billing), and definable accessible controls. In one embodiment, a subscriber apparatus (for instance a wireless communication apparatus) including pager (such as page phone) or radiotelephone functions. A caller calls the subscriber apparatus. The caller gains two-way communication with the subscriber apparatus. The subscriber apparatus may include roaming capability to control movement of a communication channel of the subscriber apparatus from a first system (for instance a regular cellular system) to a second system (for instance a first telecommunication network). The billing options include reversing communication charges (for instance from a subscriber to a calling party), receiving advertisements to reduce communication charges, or splitting communication charges (for instance between a subscriber and a calling party).
