ABSTRACT:
A telephone terminal that allows simple word commands to produce different results depending on the identity of the caller. The use of a limited set of word commands allows the utilization of an inexpensive voice recognition subsystem. A first single word command results in a caller from a first group of people being immediately placed on a speakerphone; whereas, a caller from a second group of people receives the audio message "Please stay on the line a few seconds, and I will personally answer your call". Further, for the same audio command, the called party can pre-record an audio message for the first group; whereas the second group always receives a voice synthesized message. A second single word command results in a caller from the first group of people receiving an audio message that states "The name of the caller, I will call you in five minutes". Whereas, a caller from the second group of people receives the audio message "Please call back in five minutes".
