Abstract: A method is for making an electronic device that includes a multilayer circuit board having a non-planar three-dimensional shape defining a membrane switch recess therein. The multilayer circuit board may include at least one liquid crystal polymer (LCP) layer, and at least one electrically conductive pattern layer thereon defining at least one membrane switch electrode adjacent the membrane switch recess to define a membrane switch. The electronic device may further include a compressible dielectric material filling the membrane switch recess. The electronic device may also include at least one spring member within the membrane switch recess.

Abstract: A flat panel display unit can be adjusted with respect to the bezel in which it is mounted so as to provide an optimal viewing angle from wherever the user chooses to locate himself or herself. Four servos located behind the flat panel display unit shift the angle of the display unit with respect to a bezel in which the display unit is supported and moveably mounted. A remote control unit controls the servo system.

Abstract: A wake-up and reminder system for a telephone takes advantage of the attention-drawing characteristics of the telephone ringer to awaken and/or remind a person of various tasks or appointments. The wake-up and reminder system for a telephone is provided with modular jacks for connecting between the telephone and the wall jack. A timer is provided for establishing an alarm time, and a relay responsive to the timer is provided for disconnecting the telephone temporarily from the telephone line. The system includes a ringing device for ringing the telephone at a predetermined rate and an off-hook detection circuit for detecting when the telephone has been taken off the hook. In addition, a second relay is provided responsive to the off-hook detection circuit for disconnecting the telephone from the ringing device and connecting the telephone to a recorder which plays a pre-recorded message.
