Abstract
A unique cellular telephone controller (104 and 106) provides synthesized voice feedback for directory number confirmation, call status, and cellular telephone feature, option and service selection. Cellular telephone (100) includes a cellular telephone transceiver (102), cellular telephone handset (108), AM/FM radio (110), speaker (112), control box (106), and controller switch unit (104). Controller switch unit (104) includes phone switch (201), select switch (202), scroll up switch (203), scroll down switch (204), microphone (210), and preamplifier (211). Activation of the scroll up switch (203) or scroll down switch (204) steps a location counter through locations zero through ten of the telephone number directory in cellular telephone (100) and also voices the location number or name. Activation of the select switch (202) reads out the telephone number from the memory location indicated by the location counter and also voices the digits or name for the read-out telephone number. Activation of the phone switch (201) originates a cellular telephone call to the read-out telephone number. Thereafter, another activation of the phone switch (201) terminates the cellular telephone call.
