`ABSTRACT
`( 57 )
`A mobile wireless network and a method of operation
`provide directional assistance in response to an Internet
`query . The directional assistance is provided from a location
`of the querying device to a destination that may be selec
`tively prompted based on whether the destination is a nearby
`business , a type of business , a street address , or another
`mobile device or fixed telephone location . The location of
`the querying device is also selectively determined depending
`on whether the querying device is a wireless device such as
`a mobile telephone , or whether the device has a presumed
`fixed location , such as an ordinary telephone connected to a
`public - switched telephone network ( PSTN ) .
