A method and system for dynamic information exchange on mesh network devices. A mesh network device with integrated features creates an N-way mesh network with a full mesh network topology or a partial mesh network or an ad-hoc network topology. The mesh network device is able to dynamically exchange information with other mesh network devices using stored profiles (e.g., personal data, advertisements, instant coupons, location-aware information, etc.) via a mesh network or partial mesh network or ad-hoc network.

The method of claim 1 further comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium having stored therein instructions for causing one or more processors to execute the steps of the method. 3. The method of claim 1 wherein the first set of profile information includes an e-mail address, an Internet Protocol (IP) address, a hardware address, a universal resource locator (URL), a name, a street address, an telephone number, an instant message identifier, a text message identifier, a encryption key, a digital signature, a secure message digest, a security identifier, a mesh network identifier, public or emergency notices or location specific information including location-aware information. 4. The method claim 1 wherein the step of sending periodically a wireless signal includes sending an IEEE 802.15.4 (ZigBee) wireless protocol signal. 5. The method of claim 1 wherein the step of sending periodically a wireless signal includes sending an IEEE 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, 802.16a or 802.16g wireless protocol signal. 6. The method of claim 1 wherein the step of exchanging a set of data includes securely exchanging a set of data between the first network device and the one or more other mesh network devices via the mesh network using a pre-determined security method. 7. The method of claim 1 wherein the step of receiving a first set of profile information includes receiving the first set of profile on a Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface on the first mesh network device. 8. The method of claim 1 wherein exchanging a set of data includes exchanging one or more audio files. 9. The method of claim 8 wherein the one or more audio files include Motion Picture Expert Group (MPEG) Audio Layer 3 (MP3) audio files. 10. The method of claim 1 further comprising: activating a profile template on the first mesh network device; receiving a plurality of profile information items on the first network device for the profile template via the mesh network; storing the received plurality of profile information in the profile template in non-volatile storage on the first mesh network device; and broadcasting periodically a wireless signal including the stored profile information from the first mesh network device to the plurality of other mesh network devices on the mesh network, wherein the stored profile information allows the first mesh network device to exchange data with one or more of the plurality of other mesh network devices on the mesh network whose stored profile information matches any of stored profile information of the first mesh network device. 11. The method of claim 10 further comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium having stored therein instructions for causing one or more processors to execute the steps of the method. 12. The method claim 11 wherein the step of broadcasting periodically a wireless signal includes broadcasting an IEEE 802.15.4 (ZigBee) wireless protocol signal. 13. The method claim 11 wherein step of storing the profile information includes securely storing the profile template in non-volatile storage on the first mesh network device using a pre-determined security method. 14. The method of claim 10 herein the step of activating a profile template on a first mesh network device includes: retrieving the profile template from non-volatile storage on the first mesh network device; and displaying the retrieved profile template on a display associated with the first mesh network device. 15. The method of claim 10 wherein the step of activating a profile template on a first mesh network device includes: retrieving an electronic link from non-volatile storage on the first mesh network device; and retrieving the profile template from another location on the mesh network using the retrieved electronic link; and displaying the retrieved profile template on a display associated with the first mesh network device. 16. The method of claim 10 wherein the step of broadcasting periodically a wireless signal includes securely broadcasting periodically a wireless signal from the first network device to the one or more other mesh network devices via the mesh network. 17. The method of claim 1 wherein the step of sending broadcasting periodically a wireless signal includes broadcasting an IEEE 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, 802.16a or 802.16g wireless protocol signal. 18. The method of claim 1 wherein the first mesh network device comprises a wireless mesh network sensor or an embedded mesh network device embedded into another network device. 19. A system for dynamic information interchange for mesh network devices, comprising, in combination: means for activating a profile template on a first mesh network device, wherein the first mesh network device includes an ultra wideband wireless transceiver and a mesh network protocol adapter with Complementary Code Keying (CCK), Differential Quaternary Phase Shift Keying (DQPSK) or Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) encoders, for receiving a plurality of profile information items on the first network device for the profile template and for storing the profile information in the profile template in non-volatile storage on the first mesh network device; and means for sending or broadcasting periodically a wireless signal from the first network device to a mesh network including a plurality of other mesh network devices including other sets of profile information, wherein one or more of the plurality of other mesh network devices include an ultra wideband wireless transceiver and a mesh network protocol adapter with Complementary Code Keying (CCK), Differential Quaternary Phase Shift Keying (DQPSK) or Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) encoders; for receiving one or more wireless signals from the plurality other mesh network devices on the mesh network, wherein the one or more wireless signals include the other sets of profile information stored on the plurality of other mesh network devices; and for determining from the received one or more wireless signals whether any items in first set of profile information on the first network device match any items in the other sets of profile information stored on the plurality of other mesh network devices, and if so, exchanging a set of data between the first network device and any of the one or more other mesh network devices for which any profile information matches via the mesh network. 20.
