The present invention includes a method and system for invoking service
offerings. The method can include the steps of initiating (320) a
push-to-service request, enabling (304) a Voice Recognition Server (VRS),
ranking (306) a list of supported service offerings, and presenting the
list on a display for identifying at least one service offering that is
available as a service to the user. The method and system can include
speaking (308) a voice request for selecting at least one service
presented on the display, and establishing (310) a communication dialogue
with a service provider of the service for connecting the service
provider for providing the service to the user.The push-to-service
request can be invoked by a user depressing a service button (120) on the
first communication unit (100) using a push-action. The VRS (220) can
handle the voice request and generate a list of service offerings ranked
by priority for presentation on the display. The process can include a
control protocol to negotiate at least one device characteristic with at
least one service provider.
