Methods and apparatus support communication between a communication device
and a compatible communication device over a telecommunications network.
The communication devices have unique identities. The methods and
apparatus are configured to detect the presence of the compatible
communication device using a low power radio frequency technology; to
determine the identity of the detected compatible communication device;
and, in response to detection of the presence of the compatible
communication device, to redirect incoming calls intended for the
detected compatible communication device having the determined identity
to the communication device, wherein the controller sends control signals
to the compatible communication device, such that the compatible
communication device can control the redirection of the incoming calls at
the network.
