Abstract: This paper describes some of our investigations into mobile applications and proposes a standard interface to mobile phones for computing devices. This interface is based on experience from a number of experimental systems we have built, and outlines the consequent thinking that lead to our proposal for a simple computer interface for mobile communications. The interface is based on the 115kb/s infra-red interface that is being promoted by the Infra Red Data Association [1]. We describe the interface in two ways; one is based on a structural block model, the second uses the OSI model of communications.
