Abstract

See full text

An integrated cordless telephone and telephone answering device allows a user to selectively replay messages previously recorded on the telephone answering device either through a loudspeaker or through an earpiece, both of which are provided in the cordless handset, as well as locally at the telephone answering device. The loudspeaker is the same loudspeaker that is used when the cordless handset is in a speakerphone mode. When a user wishes to initiate message retrieval through the cordless handset, a PLAY key is pressed which automatically supplies the audio signal to the loudspeaker. If the user then wishes to listen to messages through the earpiece in the cordless handset, a MODE key is pressed which supplies the audio signal to the earpiece. In addition, when the user presses a TALK key, the audio signals from the telephone line are automatically supplied to the earpiece, and finally, when the user presses a SPEAKERPHONE key, the audio signals from the telephone line are automatically supplied to the loudspeaker.
