Abstract

A mobile telephone includes a fascia (10) of precious metal and an intermediate inner liner (13) of flexible material which is bonded to the fascia (10). The flexibility of the inner liner (13) provides for sufficient flexibility to ensure snap engagement with a handset which would not be possible with a metal fascia alone. Also, a metal fascia without the presence of the inner liner (13) could interfere with the effectiveness of the telephone.
