    摘要: Techniques and apparatus to provide improved visibility to user input devices, such as keys, are disclosed. In low light conditions, key legends can be difficult to distinguish. For example, often keys have legends on them to visually distinguish them from one another, but in low light conditions it can be difficult for users to visually identify the different keys. The legends can be textual and/or graphic. Hence, according to one embodiment, light from a nearby (e.g., attached) display device can be used to provide illumination to the user input devices (e.g., keys). The user input devices can be configured to include reflective optical components to enhance reflection of light and thereby improve visibility of the keys or the legends thereon.

    摘要: There is provided an earbud (1000). The earbud (1000) comprises an earbud housing comprising an earbud member (1020) integrally formed with a longitudinal member (1010) comprising first and second ends. The earbud member includes an acoustic port (1021) disposed adjacent to the first end. The earbud comprises a speaker (13) disposed in the earbud member (1020) and aligned to emit sound from the acoustic port (1021), a rechargeable battery (19) disposed within the earbud housing, and battery charging circuitry coupled to the rechargeable battery (19) and positioned within the earbud housing, the battery charging circuitry operable to charge the rechargeable battery (19) when connected to an external power supply. The earbud (1000) further comprises a wireless antenna (1415), and a processor (20, 1411) for controlling earbud functions.
