ABSTRACT:
A cradle having a depression configured to receive a handset. A latching mechanism is mounted on the cradle and includes two detents that are biased toward the depression so that the two detents are positioned within two openings in the handset to retain the handset in a secured position. The latching mechanism is movable to a second position wherein the detents are removed from the openings in the handset and the cradle also includes an ejecting mechanism which urges a first end of the housing out of the depression in the cradle. A deformable catch member is position on a first end of the cradle so as to engage with a lip formed on the first end of the housing to partially retain the handset in the depression in the cradle in a partially ejected position. The deformable catch member is flexibly mounted so that the user can remove the handset from the depression in the cradle by pulling up on the handset to force the lip on the handset past the deformable catch member.
