A couple of my customers (LOL), one with a Motorola and one with an HTC 
phone wanted to set up TCP session on port 1237.  Being a benevolent 
network ruler, I opened the port up for them  I looked up the IP address 
and it mapped to outfit called Urban Airship at:

http://urbanairship.com/

It's some kind of push technology which reminded me of the days of 
Pointcast.  The above company started in 2009.

I just thought that was interesting.

I haven't seen any traffic than the device ACKing every 3 minutes 
keeping the TCP session up.
