  • Radiotelephone having a primary keypad and a movable flip cover that contains a secondary keypad
    Patent number: 6226501
    Abstract: Radiotelephone flip covers hinged to a radiotelephone housing include a secondary keypad configured to overlie a primary keypad of a radiotelephone. A flip cover is movable between a closed position wherein at least a portion of a primary keypad is covered, and an open position wherein a primary keypad is uncovered. When a flip cover is in a closed position and when a secondary keypad key is depressed by a user, the depressed key in-turn depresses a respective primary keypad key to perform a radiotelephone function.
