         6 . The data transmitting method for the wireless telephone as set forth in  claim 5 , wherein the displaying comprises allowing a user to designate the data to be received from the transmitting provider.  
     
     
         7 . A data transmission system, comprising: 
 a wireless telephone that receives data of at least one of an image and characters through a transmitting provider;    a designating device on said wireless telephone for designating the data for reception by the wireless telephone and for selectively designating an apparatus to which the received data is to be transmitted;    a display device on said wireless telephone for displaying information from the received data and displaying a designating address of the apparatus and displaying a menu for designating at least one of transmitting data and receiving data; and    a wireless communicating device that communicates with the apparatus without the transmitting provider and transmits the data to the apparatus designated by said designating device.    
     
     
         8 . A method for transmitting data over a transmitting provider, comprising:  
       transmitting data from a first wireless telephone to a second wireless telephone through a transmitting provider; 
 detecting, on the second wireless telephone, the data to be received from the first wireless telephone;  
 displaying information from the detected data on a display on the second wireless telephone and displaying a menu for designating at least one of transmitting data and receiving data;  
 designating the data for reception by the second wireless telephone;  
 receiving the data into the second wireless telephone;  
 designating an apparatus to which the received data is to be transmitted from the second wireless telephone; and  
 transmitting the designated data to the designated apparatus without the transmitting provider through a wireless connection device installed on the second wireless telephone.  
 
     
     
         9 . A wireless telephone, comprising: 
 a first wireless communication device for receiving data;    a first transmitting and receiving circuit coupled to said first wireless communication device;    a transmitting and receiving buffer coupled to said first transmitting and receiving circuit for temporarily storing said data;    a second transmitting and receiving circuit coupled to said transmitting and receiving buffer; and    a second wireless communication device coupled to said second transmitting and receiving circuit for transmitting the data to a designated apparatus without a transmitting provider.    
     
     
         10 . The wireless telephone as set forth in  claim 9 , further comprising: 
 a display device that displays a menu for designating the data for reception by the wireless telephone and displays received information on data of at least one of images and characters through the transmitting provider.    
     
     
         11 . The wireless telephone as set forth in  claim 10 , further comprising: 
 a designating device for designating the data for reception by the wireless telephone from the transmitting provider, and for selectively designating an apparatus to which the received data is to be transmitted.    
     
     
         12 . The wireless telephone as set forth in  claim 10 , wherein said display device displays the received information, and said designating device allows the user to designate the data to be received from the information displayed by said display device.  
     
     
         13 . A data transmitting method for a wireless telephone, comprising: 
 receiving data via a first wireless communication device;    temporarily storing said data in a transmitting and receiving buffer; and    transmitting said data to said designated apparatus without a transmitting provider via a second wireless communication device.    
     
     
         14 . The data transmitting method for the wireless telephone as set forth in  claim 13 , further comprising: 
 displaying that the telephone has received information on data of the at least one of image and characters through the transmitting provider and displaying a menu for designating the data for reception by the wireless telephone.    
     
     
         15 . The data transmitting method for the wireless telephone as set forth in  claim 14 , wherein the displaying comprises allowing a user to designate the data to be received from the transmitting provider.
