An apparatus for, and a method of, customizing an Internet session to the current location of the user which can, through a variety of methods, identify a user's specific location and once the specific location is determined, customize Internet information for the user's specific location. The location can be determined through a GPS device, user input or calculation and application of location parameters from a known position or similar methods. The customized Internet information can be accessed via, for example, CDPD, and user specific queries can be addressed through Internet search capabilities coupled with local processing.

The image processing apparatus according to claim 8, wherein when the available capacity of said image information memory becomes less than a predetermined amount, input of the image information by said input means is stopped, then image data is rendered in said image memory by said rendering means based on the image information stored in said image information memory up to that time, and the image data is compressed, next, the image data for one page is formed by repeating operations of: inputting subsequent image information by said input means; storing the subsequent image information into said image information memory in place of the image information used in rendering by said rendering means; specifying an image area of a full page corresponding to the subsequent image information; expanding the compressed image data corresponding to the specified image area; synthesizing the expanded image data with image data based on the subsequent image information by rendering the image data in said image memory by rendering means based on the subsequent image information; and compressing the synthesized image data by said compressing means. 10. An image processing method comprising: a predicting step, of predicting whether or not there is a possibility of overflow such as would preclude a capability of storing image information for one page; a rendering step, of rendering image data based on image information that has been stored, when a result of said predicting step predicts that there is a possibility of overflow; a compressing step, of compressing the image data rendered in said rendering step; a storing step, of storing the image data compressed in said compressing step; an expanding step, of expanding compressed image data stored in said storing step; a reception controlling step, of deleting image information that has been used for rendering, and of receiving subsequent image information; a monitoring step, of monitoring an amount of compressed image data compressed in said compressing step; a resolution converting step, of converting the resolution of image data rendered in said rendering step on a basis of the amount of compressed image data monitored in said monitoring step so as to reduce the amount of image data after the compressing in said compressing step; and an output step, of outputting processed image data, processed by said image processing method, to a printer, wherein said output step comprises a step of converting a resolution of image data expanded in said expanding step to a predetermined resolution for printing by a smoothing process to prepare the processed image data to be output to the printer when the expanded image data expanded in said expanding step has a low resolution due to the conversion in said resolution converting step. 11. The image processing method according to claim 10, further comprising an image information converting step of converting image object data, included in input image information, into compressed image object data. 12. The image processing method according to claim 10, wherein said expanding step includes a step of converting low resolution image data into high resolution data. 13. The image processing method according to claim 10, wherein the processed image data for one page is continuously outputted in said output step. 14. The image processing method according to claim 10, wherein said printer forms an image on a print medium by an electrophotographic method. 15. The image processing apparatus according to claim 10, wherein after the image data for one page has been compressed, the compressed image data is continuously expanded at said expanding step. 16. The image processi
