Abstract

A method and communication device for scheduling a conference call. The method includes receiving, in a first communication device, an invitation message containing at least some conference call scheduling information with respect to a scheduled conference call session; displaying an interface in relation to the invitation message, the interface including an option to send a request for recorded conference call content of the scheduled conference call session; receiving an input selecting the option; and sending a communication to a second communication device including a response to the invitation message and including said request for recorded conference call content. A conference call server is also described for sending recorded conference call content to the communication device.

Claims (36)

1. A method for scheduling a conference call, the method comprising:

receiving, in a first communication device, an invitation message containing at least some conference call scheduling information with respect to a scheduled conference call session;

displaying an interface in relation to the invitation message, the interface including an option to send a request for recorded conference call content of the scheduled conference call session;

receiving an input selecting the option; and

sending a communication to a second communication device including a response to the invitation message and including said request for recorded conference call content.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein said sending of the communication is in response to selection of the option through the interface.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein said sending of the communication is performed as part of a conference call scheduling process prior to occurrence of the conference call session.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising receiving in the first communication device the recorded conference call content and storing in a memory.

13. A communication device comprising:

a controller;

a communications subsystem for receiving an invitation message containing at least some conference call scheduling information with respect to a scheduled conference call session;

a display for displaying an interface in relation to the invitation message, the interface including an option to send a request for recorded conference call content of the scheduled conference call session;

wherein the controller detects an input selecting the option; and

wherein the controller controls the communications subsystem to send a communication to a second communication device including a response to the invitation message and including said request for recorded conference call content.

14. The communication device as claimed in claim 13 wherein said sending of the communication is in response to selection of the option through the interface.

15. The communication device as claimed in claim 13 wherein said sending of the communication is performed as part of a conference call scheduling process prior to occurrence of the conference call session.
