A holder for an electronic device is provided. The holder accommodates a variety of electronic devices, each electronic device having a different form factor. A rotatable, spring loaded pin is included with the holder. The pin has projections that extend distally from the pin and intersect a graduated base member. When the pin is rotated, the projections move along the graduated base member so as to cause the pin to protrude more or less into the pocket of the holder. This rotation and corresponding pin protrusion height allows the cradle to accommodate electronic devices having different form factors, while providing a support that is fully captured or enclosed by the assembly of the accessory.

This invention is a wireless communication device, for example a hands-free speakerphone accessory for a mobile telephone, that includes a pair of flexible elongated tubular members capable of attaching to the stems of eyeglasses. When the apertures or lumens in the flexible elongated tubes are attached to the stems of eyewear, the wireless communication device acts both as a wireless communication device and as an eyewear retainer. An adjustable clasp member and second clasp member mounted on the flexible tubular members allow the wireless communication device to form a closed loop, so as to be mounted on a user's neck, or other object, like a sun visor or steering wheel of an automobile. In one embodiment, at least one loudspeaker is coupled to one of the tubular members, while a low-profile microphone is coupled to the other tubular member.

A phone holder, or cradle, is provided having a latching mechanism that remains in an open position until a push button falls within a predetermined height of the cradle. Once this occurs, a hooked member is released from a stop coupled to a slide within the cradle, thereby allowing the hooked member to mate with a détente in an electronic device. In one embodiment, the latching mechanism includes a hooked member having a clasp, a slide, a push button with an inclined plane for actuating the slide and a plurality of springs. The latching mechanism prevents the clasp from riding along, and potentially marring, the surface of the electronic device.

This invention is a method of manufacturing printed circuit boards using a contact block packaging to provide and support electrical contact blocks relative to a printed circuit board panel. The contact block packaging is situated adjacent to the printed circuit board panel, so that electrical contact blocks of the contact block packaging are aligned with circuit boards of the printed circuit board panel, but breakaway stems supporting the electrical contact blocks are offset from webbing of the printed circuit board panel. The electrical contact blocks are then soldered to the printed circuit boards. Thereafter, the breakaway stems of the contact block packaging and the webs of the printed circuit board panel are broken, so that the electronic contact blocks are decoupled from the rest of the contact block packaging and the printed circuit boards are decoupled from the rest of the printed circuit board panel.
