Abstract

A headset can be used to listen to music or other audio programming and can also be used to conduct a telephone conversation. A microphone on a biased arm pivots between an extended position and a retracted position so as to be in place for conducting a telephone call, but out of the way when not in use. Extension of the microphone arm may signal the acceptance of an incoming call or may initiate a call being placed by the user.
