Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method for providing a data service comprising:
 determining a direction in which a user is looking based on a plurality of electronic devices;   receiving a user confirmation of the direction; and   providing a data service to a user mobile device responsive to confirmation of the direction.   
   
   
       2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the user mobile device is a headset. 
   
   
       3 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the data service is delivery of voice or text data to the user mobile device. 
   
   
       4 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the data service is provided to the user mobile device by an electronic device selected from among the plurality of electronic devices. 
   
   
       5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of electronic devices are connected to a communication network. 
   
   
       6 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of electronic devices are connected to a server via a wired or wireless connection. 
   
   
       7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of electronic devices includes a wireless communication module. 
   
   
       8 . A method for using a mobile device comprising:
 receiving a user command to link with a desired target device selected from among a plurality of target devices, the desired target device associated with a directional orientation of a mobile device corresponding to a direction a user is facing;   initiating a wireless communications link between the mobile device and the desired target device; and   receiving or transmitting signals between the mobile device and the desired target device.   
   
   
       9 . The method of  claim 8 , further comprising presenting the user with zero, one, or more than one potential target devices responsive to the user command to link with the desired target device. 
   
   
       10 . The method of  claim 8 , further comprising activating a plurality of potential target devices and polling for mobile devices. 
   
   
       11 . The method of  claim 8 , further comprising transmitting a request link code between the mobile device and the desired target device. 
   
   
       12 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the plurality of target devices are networked electronic devices capable of transmitting voice or text data. 
   
   
       13 . The method of  claim 8 , further comprising presenting a plurality of potential desired target devices to the user. 
   
   
       14 . The method of  claim 13 , wherein presenting a plurality of potential desired target devices to the user comprises measuring signal strengths received from the plurality of target devices. 
   
   
       15 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the mobile device is a headset. 
   
   
       16 . A method for providing a data service comprising:
 determining a direction in which a user is facing based on a signal transmission from a mobile device;   receiving a request for a data service from the user mobile device; and   providing the data service to the user mobile device.   
   
   
       17 . The method of  claim 16 , wherein the data service is delivery of voice or text data to the user mobile device. 
   
   
       18 . The method of  claim 16 , wherein the user mobile device is a headset. 
   
   
       19 . The method of  claim 16 , wherein the data service is provided to the user mobile device by an electronic device selected from among a plurality of electronic devices. 
   
   
       20 . The method of  claim 19 , wherein the plurality of electronic devices are connected to a communication network.
