Abstract

A data communication device with no wait time, which multiple users can operate simultaneously, each user being able to obtain desired content simultaneously, regardless of the content of a content screen, being the same or different content screens. A body of the data communication device is provided with a communication unit having a terminal and a plurality of communication elements for communicating content, a transferring unit for transferring content to certain communication elements of the communication unit, and an associated data creating unit for selecting the communication elements to which content is to be transferred from among the plurality of communication elements. Content can thereby be provided simultaneously to multiple users without a wait time, and areas from which content can be obtained can thereby be varied dynamically. Operations related to provision of content, such as to many users, are therefore easy.
