Abstract
A hands-free vehicle mounted mobile telephone system with audio that enables the user of the phone to dial and operate the phone without taking the user's hands off of the steering wheel of a car or other motor-operated vehicle. The user may select the party to be called using an audio selector and, when the party to be called has been selected, the user may then have the number automatically dialed using voice activation or by pressing a button. The controls for the system are designed to be placed on or near the steering wheel/column of the motor-operated vehicle such that the user of the phone may manipulate the controls using the user's fingers without the need to remove either hand from the steering wheel. The device may be used with any type of mobile telephone.
