A system for matching users in a wireless communication system based on proximity of the users and user-defined profiles includes at least two mobile units. The mobile units include a requesting unit and at least one target unit, and each mobile unit is capable of operating as both a requesting unit and a target unit. The system also includes profile means for storing a user profile on each of the mobile units and search means for searching for at least one target user by a requesting user. The search means compares the user profiles of each target user with the user profile of the requesting user. The search means can also indicate a match when a target unit is within a predetermined distance of the requesting unit.

1. A method of matching users in a wireless communication system, comprising: storing identifying information for at least two mobile units, comprising a requesting unit and a target unit;searching at least one target user by a requesting user, the searching comprising comparing the identifying info
1. A method of matching users in a wireless communication system, comprising: storing identifying information for at least two mobile units, comprising a requesting unit and a target unit;searching at least one target user by a requesting user, the searching comprising comparing the identifying information with information provided by the requesting unit;filtering the target unit based on a speed, a direction and a location of the target unit in relation to the requesting unit;calculating in real time during a communication an amount of time left in the communication based on the speed, the direction and the location of the target unit in relation to the present location of the requesting unit; andexchanging communication packets between the requesting unit and the target unit, each communication packet comprising a header and a payload, the header comprising the identifying information. 2. The method according to claim 1, further comprising notifying the users when the information provided by the requesting unit matches the identifying information of the target unit. 3. The method according to claim 1, further comprising initiating a communication between the requesting unit and the target unit. 4. The method according to claim 1, wherein each mobile unit functions as the requesting unit and the target unit. 5. The method according to claim 1, wherein the storing comprises entering the identifying information, the identifying information comprising temporary identifying information. 6. The method according to claim 1, wherein the storing comprises storing the identifying information on a mobile unit. 7. The method according to claim 1, wherein the storing comprises storing the identifying information on the wireless communication system. 8. The method according to claim 1, wherein the searching comprises comparing the identifying information associated with the at least one target user located within a predetermined distance of the requesting unit. 9. A method for matching users in a wireless communication system, comprising: providing each user with a mobile unit, comprising a requesting unit and at least one target unit;storing identifying information;receiving information provided by an operator of the requesting unit;comparing the identifying information of each target unit with the information provided by the operator of the requesting unit;determining a group of at least one target unit having identifying information that matches the information provided by the operator of the requesting unit and which is filtered according to a speed, a direction and a location of the target unit in relation to the requesting unit;notifying users of matching target units in the group of at least one target unit when the information provided by the operator of the requesting unit matches the identifying information of at least one target unit;initiating a communication between the requesting unit and the matching target units using at least one communication packet comprising a header and a payload; andcalculating in real time during the communication an amount of time left in the communication based on the speed, the direction and the location of the target unit in relation to the present location of the requesting unit. 10. The method according to claim 9, wherein mobile unit functions as the requesting unit and one of the at least one target unit. 11. The method according to claim 9, wherein the storing comprises storing temporary identifying information. 12. The method according to claim 9, wherein the storing comprises storing the identifying information on a mobile unit. 13. The method according to claim 9, wherein the storing comprises storing the identifying information on the wireless communication system. 14. The method according to claim 9, wherein the comparing comprises matching a predetermined number of items of the identifying information of each of the at least one target unit with the information provided by the operator of the requesting unit. 15. The method according to claim 9, wherein the notifying comprises providing a visual indicator to each user. 16. The method according to claim 9, wherein the notifying comprises an audio indicator to each user. 17. The method according to claim 9, further comprising detecting each at least one target unit within a predetermined distance of the requesting unit. 18. The method according to claim 17, wherein the detecting is performed by a global positioning system device contained in each mobile unit. 19. A mobile unit for matching users in a wireless communication system, comprising: a memory storing identifying information relating to a user of the mobile unit; anda microprocessor operatively cooperating with the memory; the microprocessor operative with control instructions stored in the memory to perform:searching at least one target user by a requesting user, the searching comprising comparing the identifying information with information provided by the requesting user;filtering a target unit based on a speed, a direction and a location of the target unit in relation to the requesting user;calculating in real time during a communication an amount of time left in the communication based on the speed, the direction and the location of the target user in relation to the present location of the requesting user; andexchanging communication packets between a requesting unit and the target unit, each communication packet comprising a header and a payload, the header comprising identifying information. 20. The mobile unit according to claim 19, wherein the processor is further operative with the control instructions stored in the memory to notify the users when the information provided by the requesting user matches the identifying information. 21. The mobile unit according to claim 19, wherein the mobile unit functions as the requesting unit and the target unit. 22. The mobile unit according to claim 19, wherein the processor is further operative with the control instructions stored in the memory to initiate a communication between the requesting user and the target user. 23. The mobile unit according to claim 19, wherein the storing comprises entering the identifying information, the identifying information comprising temporary identifying information. 24. The mobile unit according to claim 19, wherein the storing comprises storing the identifying information on a mobile unit. 25. The mobile unit according to claim 19, wherein the storing comprises storing the identifying information on the wireless communication system. 26. The mobile unit according to claim 19, wherein the searching comprises comparing the identifying information associated with the at least one target user located within a predetermined distance of the requesting user. 27. The mobile unit according to claim 19, wherein the mobile unit comprises a motor vehicle. 28. The mobile unit according to claim 19, wherein the mobile unit comprises a cellular telephone. 29. The mobile unit according to claim 19, wherein the mobile unit comprises a personal digital assistant. 30.
