Abstract

A portable electronic device (100) has an audio speech processor (102) and a microprocessor (101). There is a non-volatile memory (110) and a real time clock (107). The device (100) is encased in a csing (115). The device (100) is connected to a host computer (112) to the microprocessor (101).

Claims

1. A portable electronic device comprising:

(a) an audio speech processor;

(b) a microprocessor with volatile and non-volatile memory capabilities and a real time clock linked to the audio speech processor;

(c) a printed circuit on which the microprocessor resides;

(d) a protective casing surrounding the audio speech processor and microprocessor;

(e) an audio output connected to the audio speech processor and extending through the protective casing to project sound from the portable electronic device;

(f) a first user function button connected to the microprocessor positioned outside of the protective casing which when pressed initiates an audio output containing personal related information;

(g) a means for connecting the microprocessor to a host computer through which an event relating to personal, historical, medical, and medication information is transferred to the portable electronic device to remind a user of the event and a record of action is transferred from the portable electronic device to a host computer; and

(g) a power source.

2. The portable electronic device of claim 1 further comprising a tactile sensory component which reminds the user of an event, identifies a function of the user function button, or signals low power.

3. The portable electronic device of claim 1 further comprising a visual sensory component which reminds the user of an event, identifies a function of the user function button or signals low power.

4. The portable electronic device of claim 1 further comprising an audible input device.

5. The portable electronic device of claim 1 further comprising a unique identifier to the device.

6. The portable electronic device of claim 1 further comprising a secondary user function button or buttons.

7. The portable electronic device of claim 1 further comprising a wrist band or arm band to which the portable electronic device is attached.

8. A secure personal health information and event reminder system comprising the portable electronic device of claim 1 linked to a host computer capable of data input to the portable electronic device.
