A wireless electromechanical lock with one or more of an internal antenna, touch activation, and/or a light communication device that acts as a user interface. In some embodiments, the lock utilizes an antenna near the exterior face of the lockset, designed inside the metal body of the lockset itself. A light communication device is provided in some embodiments to communicate information, visually, to the user via animations and dynamic displays of light. In some embodiments, the lockset includes a touch activation capability, which can be used to lock/unlock the lock and/or otherwise provide input.

A portable communication device includes an audio driver movable within an audio driver housing which forms an expandable chamber. The portable communication device includes at least two portions that are moveably connected to each other allowing the device to be in at least a closed position and an open position. The audio driver can be maintained in a compressed position when the portable communication device is in an open position. Accordingly, the volume of the chamber is independent of the relative position between the portions forming the portable communication device.
