The invention provides the user with a cordless (RF) radio frequency communication device that interfaces with a wide variety of audio components and or computer hardware and or software, while retaining the ability to be used simultaneously as a cordless and or hands free telephone. Accordingly, the invention may be in active communication with, but not limited to, a computer, laptop computer or notebook, palm device or Web TV device and or external audio devices.
