Abstract

Systems (100) and methods (400) for operating a hybrid communication device (106). The methods involve executing at least one boot program. Responsive to the boot program, a first and second code are concurrently executed. The first code is operative for booting at least a real-time operating system on which a radio processor of the hybrid communication device is built. The second code is operative for booting at least a mobile operating system on which a cellular processor of the hybrid communication device is built. The radio processor provides support for wireless radio communication while the mobile operating system is booting.
