    摘要: An improved handheld electronic device includes a case having an asymmetry provided by an outwardly protruding corner. The handheld electronic device includes an earphone disposed at the outwardly protruding corner. The positioning of the earphone allows a user to rapidly locate the with respect to the user's ear. Additionally, by positioning the earphone at a protruding corner of the handheld electronic device, the protruding corner can be positioned at an inner location of the user's outer ear, which is more comfortable to the user than positioning the handheld electronic device atop the outer ear. The earphone is offset from a main axis of the handheld electronic device in a direction generally toward the side of the handheld electronic device on which the outwardly protruding corner is disposed. In a second embodiment, a display of the handheld electronic device is offset from a main axis thereof in a second direction away from the offset earphone.

    摘要: An improved speaker apparatus for use in association with a handheld electronic device includes an actuator, an audio transducer, and a connection that is connectable with the handheld electronic device. The speaker apparatus additionally includes a power system that is connectable with a power source. The connection enables the communication of audio signals between the speaker apparatus and the handheld electronic device, and also provides power to operate and/or charge the handheld electronic device. When the speaker apparatus is connected with the handheld electronic device, the audio transducer serves as both a loudspeaker and a microphone for use in, for example, telephone communications using a wireless communication apparatus of the handheld electronic device.

    摘要: A handheld electronic device includes a housing having a surface; a first input component having input members disposed external to the surface; a second touch sensitive input component disposed about the input members, the touch sensitive input component being separate and distinct from the input members and the first input component and being structured to provide one of: a contact point with respect to the surface responsive to actuation of a first number of the input members, and a number of responses responsive to actuation of a second number of the input members. A processor cooperates with the first input component and the touch sensitive input component to determine if a plurality of the input members are actuated contemporaneously and to output a representation of a single one of the input members based upon one of: the contact point, and the number of responses.
