In this case of interactive multimedia communication, there is human involvement. So, the end to select service is beyond mobile device in human brain. Users choose proper URL for his terminal capability. Users do not want to be annoyed by the result of negotiation by *INTELLIGENT* intermediate systems. Users do not want to be annoyed by delay for the negotiation. And, at the other side of the communication, users can't provide so much variation of the content. Masataka Ohta PS Of course, people in telephone companies do not do it end to end but may want to call it end to end.
