Abstract
A mobile telephone automatically establishes communication with a system via a short-range wireless network. When communication is established, the mobile telephone user is automatically logged in to the system. The system can then apply personalized settings and/or provide access to personalized services based on the mobile telephone user's system account. Once communication between the mobile telephone and the system is established, the mobile telephone may be used as a remote control device to control operation of the system.
