2 . The mobile device of claim 1 , further comprising:
an audio element configured to receive an audio input from a user of the mobile device and generates a voice signal from the audio input, wherein the processor formats the voice signal into the second format and wherein the transceiver transmits the voice signal in the second format to the second end point.
3 . The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein transceiver is further configured to receive second wireless voice communications from the second end point in the second format and the processor reformats the second voice communications from the second format to the first format, wherein the transceiver transmits the reformatted second wireless voice communications to the first end point.
4 . The mobile device of claim 2 , wherein the processor formats the voice signal into the first format and wherein the transceiver transmits the voice signal in the first format to the first end point.
5 . The mobile device of claim 2 , wherein the processor initially stores and mixes the first wireless voice communications and the voice signals, the processor subsequently converting the mixed signal into the second format for transmission to the second end point.
6 . The mobile device of claim 3 , further comprising:
a memory storing a voice application, the processor being configured to execute the voice application, the voice application including a first client for the first end point and a second client for the second end point.
7 . The mobile device of claim 6 , wherein the first client includes a first interface for the first format and the second client includes a second interface for the second format.
8 . The mobile device of claim 6 , wherein the voice application includes at least one of an application programming interface, a codec, and an audio driver for the formatting.
9 . The mobile device of claim 6 , wherein the voice application includes a control module that configures parameters and performs functionalities for each of the end points.
10 . The mobile device of claim 9 , wherein the parameters related to each of the first and second end points, the parameters including a gain level, an activation of at least one of audio transmission and reception, and a deactivation of at least one of the audio transmission and reception and wherein the functionalities including making, performing, and terminating a call.
11 . A method, comprising:
receiving first wireless voice communications by a transceiver of a mobile device from a first end point in a first format;
reformatting, by a processor of the mobile device, the first wireless voice communications from the first format to a second format, the second format being an operating format of a second end point; and
transmitting, by the transceiver of the mobile device, the reformatted first wireless voice communications to the second end point.
12 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
receiving, by an audio element of the mobile device, an audio input from a user of the mobile device;
generating, by the processor of the mobile device, a voice signal from the audio input;
formatting, by the processor of the mobile device, the voice signal into the second format; and
transmitting, by the transceiver of the mobile device, the voice signal in the second format to the second end point.
13 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
receiving, by the transceiver of the mobile device, second wireless voice communications from the second end point in the second format;
formatting, by the processor of the mobile device, the second voice communications from the second format to the first format; and
transmitting, by the transceiver of the mobile device, the reformatted second wireless voice communications to the first end point.
14 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
formatting, by the processor of the mobile device, the voice signal into the first format; and
transmitting, by the transceiver of the mobile device, the voice signal in the first format to the first end point.
15 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
storing, in a memory of the mobile device, the first wireless voice communications and the voice signals;
mixing, by the processor of the mobile device, the first wireless voice communications and the voice signals;
converting the mixed signal into the second format for transmission to the second end point.
16 . The method of claim 13 , wherein the processor executes a voice application including a first client for the first end point and a second client for the second end point.
17 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the first client includes a first interface for the first format and the second client includes a second interface for the second format.
18 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the voice application includes at least one of an application programming interface, a codec, and an audio driver for the formatting.
19 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the voice application includes a control module that configures parameters and performs functionalities for each of the end points.
20 . A computer readable storage medium including a set of instructions executable by a processor, the set of instructions operable to:
receive first wireless voice communications by a transceiver of a mobile device from a first end point in a first format;
reformat the first wireless voice communications from the first format to a second format, the second format being an operating format of a second end point; and
transmit the reformatted first wireless voice communications to the second end point.
