Abstract
The audio player of the present invention comprises: an audio playing module to decode audio compressed files, produce an audio signal transmitted to an earphone, and receive a voice signal from a microphone; and an attachment mechanism to combine a wireless earphone with the audio playing module, to accomplish an electrical connecting interface therebetween. Therefore, the audio playing module operates the wireless earphone via the electrical connecting interface and establishes two-way audio communication with a mobile phone. Another embodiment of this invention provides an audio player having a wireless transceiver, which can establish a wireless connectivity with a mobile phone and allow two-way audio communication, enabling the audio player to communicate with the mobile phone at any time in response to a ring indication received from the mobile phone.
