A telephone device is used to view content on a nearby display screen
which is not physically connected to the telephone device. The telephone
device includes a display screen which displays content, or a portion
thereof, a button which facilitates communication of content between the
telephone device and a local control device connected to the nearby
display screen, and a wireless transmitter. Content, or a portion
thereof, and an electronic address of the content is stored in the
telephone device. The content, or a portion thereof, is displayed on the
display screen of the telephone device. The electronic address of the
content is communicated from the telephone device to the local control
device via a signal sent by the wireless transmitter upon selection of
the button. The local control device receives the signal and transmits a
request over an electronic network to retrieve the content from a remote
location. Upon receiving the content, the local control device provides
the content to the nearby display screen for display thereon.
