Abstract
A communication device (100) includes a communications manager (140) coupled to a contacts memory (155). The contacts memory (155) stores information associated with one or more communication contacts, including a contact identification (200), a contact applications history (210), and contact associated data (215). The contact applications history (210) includes one or more regularly updated applications or associated links historically utilized by a user of the communication device (100) when communicating with the contact. The communications manager (140) is adapted to: identify a communication contact; establish a communication connection with the communication contact; and launch one or more applications stored in the contact applications history (210) using the contact associated data (215) or links to such data for the communication contact in response to the communication connection.
