Abstract

The mobile phone greetings card has a battery powered sound chip 6 which is activated when the card is opened. The sound leaves from a small hole 3 at the top of the card and can be heard when it is a few metres from the ear, but better if it is placed closer to the ear. The sound amplitude is less than that for standard talking cards to reduce user embarrassment when the card is opened. The card is folded along fold line 7 to close it, and is retained closed by hook and loop fasteners 4,8. It is intended that the voice is recognisable as that of a celebrity.

It is unique from standard talking phones through three main features: it's mobile phone design, the idea that a celebrity has called that phone and left a message and it's level of volume (see claims).
All voices by impressionists.
