Abstract

A method and system for processing an incoming call to an electronic communication device enables a response to an incoming call to be determined based on whether a peripheral device is operatively coupled to the electronic communication device. A first call processing profile is associated with a first peripheral device and a second call processing profile is associated with a second peripheral device. The method comprises determining that the first peripheral device is operatively coupled to the electronic communication device (step 210). The incoming call to the electronic communication device is then allowed to be processed according to the first call processing profile in response to the first peripheral device being operatively coupled to the electronic communication device (step 215).
