Media exchange network supporting remote peripheral access

1. A method for providing remote access, comprising:

receiving a request by a media management system associated with a native network to transfer information to or from a media device, wherein the media device is communicatively coupled to a non-native network;

authenticating the request by the media management system; and

routing the information based on a profile of the media device, the profile being stored in at least one of: the media management system and the media device, wherein the profile comprises one or more roaming parameters for routing the information when the media device is communicatively coupled to the non-native network.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein routing the information comprises routing the information based on routing details of the profile of the media device.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein routing the information comprises routing the information to a default location when no routing details are in the profile of the media device, wherein the default location includes the media management system.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein routing the information comprises routing the information to a default location when the media device cannot be located, wherein the default location includes the media management system.

5. The method according to claim 1 , comprising determining a location of the media device by accessing information stored in a media peripheral home location register and a media peripheral visitor location register.

6. A system operable to provide remote access, comprising:

a media device operable to roam in a non-native network by communicatively coupling to the non-native network, wherein the media device is operable to generate a request to a communication device communicatively coupled to a native network to transfer information to or from the media device; and

a storage operable to store a profile of the media device, wherein the storage is in the media device, the profile comprising roaming parameters for routing of the requested information to or from the media device after the generated request is authenticated.

7. The system according to claim 6 , wherein the generated request is authenticated by the communication device communicatively coupled to the native network prior to the transferring of the information to or from the media device.

8. The system according to claim 6 , wherein routing the requested information comprises routing the information based on routing details of the profile of the media device.

9. The system according to claim 6 , wherein routing the requested information comprises routing the information to a default location if no routing details are in the profile of the media device.

10. The system according to claim 6 , wherein routing the requested information comprises routing the requested information to a default location if the media device cannot be located.

11. The system according to claim 6 , wherein the communication device communicatively coupled to the native network determines a location of the media device.

12. A media management system operable to communicatively couple with a native network, comprising:

a storage operable to store a profile of a media peripheral;

at least one processor operable to:

receive a request for a data file associated with the media peripheral;

determine a location of the media peripheral;

access the profile of the media peripheral, wherein the profile includes one or more roaming parameters for routing data files associated with the media peripheral; and

when the location of the media peripheral is determined as in a non-native network, route the data file to a destination device identified by the roaming parameters in the profile of the media peripheral.

13. The media management system of claim 12 , wherein the destination device includes at least one of: the media peripheral; the media management system in the native network; and a media processing system associated with another media peripheral.

14. The media management system of claim 13 , wherein the at least one processor is further operable to:

when the location of the media peripheral is not determined, route the data file to a default device identified in the profile of the media peripheral, wherein the default device is the media management system in the native network.

15. The media management system of claim 13 , wherein the at least one processor is further operable to:

when the destination device is not identified by the roaming parameters in the profile of the media peripheral, route the data file to a default device identified in the profile of the media peripheral, wherein the default device is the media management system in the native network.

16. The media management system of claim 12 , wherein the at least one processor is operable to determine the location of the media peripheral by:

accessing information stored in a media peripheral home location register and a media peripheral visitor location register.

17. The media management system of claim 16 , wherein the media peripheral home location register stores information for a plurality of media peripherals associated with the native network and wherein the media peripheral visitor location register stores information for a plurality of media peripherals currently serviced in the native network.

18. The media management system of claim 12 , wherein the profile of the media peripheral is further stored in the media peripheral.

19. The media management system of claim 12 , wherein the media management system includes at least one of: a media exchange server, a media processing system and a personal computer.

20. The media management system of claim 12 , wherein the at least one processor is further operable to:

authenticate the media peripheral in response to the request.
