Abstract

A selective call transceiver (200) has a plurality of assignable address ports (246), a receiver (204) for receiving a directory of information services (120-132) on a mail drop address port, a controller (210) for generating a menu (240) from the directory of information services (120-132), a display (228) for displaying the menu (240) of the information services from the plurality of assignable address ports (246) and a user interface (216) for selecting an information service (242) from the menu (240) of information services. The controller (210) is further coupled to the user interface (216) to assign the information service being selected to the identified assignable address port, and a transmitter (208) transmits a request for the selected information service (242) including an address for indentifying selectable address port.
