In an embodiment, a secondary communication terminal executes a client application to engage in a client application session, the secondary CT configured to connect to a primary CT over a local wireless connection, the primary CT having a higher-quality user interface environment as compared to the secondary CT. Those event notifications tagged as having a normal priority are sent directly to a reporting database, while those tagged as having a high priority are sent directly to an alert evaluation module which is configured to generate an alert as a result of an alert evaluation operation performed on an event notification. Using specified pricing models applied to filtered price data periodically gathered by spider-crawling competitors on the Internet, a vendor may adjust product prices to match rivals while accounting for overall marketplace price trends.
