Abstract: A fishing lure has an elastomeric or soft plastic body containing multiple suction features along its surface. By being capable of sticking to the roof of the fish's mouth or the fish's tongue, the suction features help increase the chance that the lure remains in the fish's mouth a few more seconds prior to an angler's hookset. The combination of the suction features' tactile feel and their adhering ability results in a unique advantage for any type of soft plastic fishing lure.

Abstract: A compact lightweight communication device 100 comprising a wireless headset 102 or wireless earset 104 can be provided for wireless communication, to a mobile phone or other wireless electronic communication device 106. The user friendly communication device 100 can have a pivotable boom 146 providing an arm with one and preferably multiple microphones 166 and 168, as well as one or mobile tactile buttons 156. The multifunction communication device can have acoustic audio transducer 134, such as a speaker 136 and/or an earbud 138 or earphone 140. The audio transducer can pivot on a pivot tube 142 comprising a pivotable stem to accommodate the left ear or right ear of the user. The boom and stem can pivot clockwise and/or counterclockwise, manually and independently or can be coupled to automatically pivot together.

Abstract: This invention is a wireless, speakerphone accessory that allows the user to be in either public or private communication with a remote electronic device like a mobile telephone. The accessory includes a detachable ear bud that can be worn in a user's ear so that only the user hears the audio signal being received. When the ear bud is coupled to the speakerphone accessory, the circuitry in the ear bud is used to control a loudspeaker and other components in the accessory so as to convert the combined device in to a speakerphone that may be heard by the user and others in his immediate vicinity. The speakerphone accessory optionally includes pockets for receiving rechargeable batteries, as well as utility pockets for holding spare components like ear sleeves. The invention not only offers the dual functionality of private and public operating modes, but serves as a self-retaining case to greatly reduce the chances that any of the components become lost.

Abstract: This invention is a wireless communication device, for example a hands-free speakerphone accessory for a mobile telephone, that includes a pair of flexible elongated tubular members capable of attaching to the stems of eyeglasses. When the apertures or lumens in the flexible elongated tubes are attached to the stems of eyewear, the wireless communication device acts both as a wireless communication device and as an eyewear retainer. An adjustable clasp member and second clasp member mounted on the flexible tubular members allow the wireless communication device to form a closed loop, so as to be mounted on a user's neck, or other object, like a sun visor or steering wheel of an automobile. In one embodiment, at least one loudspeaker is coupled to one of the tubular members, while a low-profile microphone is coupled to the other tubular member.
