ABSTRACT:
A telephone handset having a housing, a loudspeaker, and microphone arranged to be brought into operating proximity with a user. A rocker member (41) extends through a side surface (16) of the housing and is arranged to be resiliently pushable in a first direction (46) and resiliently pushable in a second direction (47). A first switch (26) and a second switch (27) are mounted to a circuit board (25) in the housing; each arranged to cooperate with the rocker member so that the first switch is activated when the rocker member is pushed in the first direction and the second switch is activated when the rocker member is pushed in the second direction. The rocker member itself pivots about a pivot (31) directly mounted to the circuit board. Connection of the rocker member on the pivot directly on the circuit board facilitates fabrication of the circuit board into the housing without the constraint of ensuring, at this stage, that the rocker member co-operates with the switches mounted to the circuit board.
