Abstract
In a general-purpose subscriber unit a data communication method provides management and control functions to allow communication between one of a plurality of software applications and a selected communication device, such as a radio frequency modem. Messages received by the modem may be routed and stored for designated ones of said applications, even if they are not currently active. Likewise, an application operating in background mode may generate messages which are stored, routed, and transmitted through the modem.
