ABSTRACT:
In order to enhance the desirability of packaging for products, and particularly the packaging for portable cellular telephones, a unique and improved product package is disclosed. The package includes a compartment for receiving the product which is defined at least in part by a side wall and a bottom wall. The compartment has a recess generally conforming in shape to the shape of the product. The package also includes a lid overlying the compartment to normally restrict access to the product during shipment and sale thereof. The lid is movable from a closed compartment position to an open compartment position by a purchaser of the product. The package includes a spring for elevating at least a portion of the product from the recess in the compartment. The spring operates when the lid has been moved from the closed compartment position to the open compartment position. The package thus enhances the visibility of the product in the compartment to the purchaser thereof. In a highly preferred embodiment, the package is such that an audible signal relating to the product is produced when the lid has been moved from the closed compartment position to the open compartment position.
