Abstract

See full text

A system and method for providing informative communications while a connection is being established between two communications devices, such as computers or facsimile machines. The method includes suppressing audio tones that are sent between the modems and presenting information to a user of the communications device while the connection is being established. The information includes advertisements, music, movie clips, news headlines, sports scores, stock quotes, weather, time of day, calendar reminders, horoscopes, and inspirational sayings. Such information is more informative to the user than the traditional audio tones utilized by the modems and therefore are suppressed in an embodiment of the current invention.
