Abstract: An analog electronic timepiece is disclosed having a function by use of which a plurality
of predetermined times as well as a mode change can be visually informed so that they are
easily understood by hand movement and sound generation. When ajudgement circuit (304,
314) judges a predetermined condition of the timepiece, such as time coincidence with a preset
alarm time and/or mode change, the judgement circuit (304, 314) outputs a starting signal of
the hand movement and sound generation. An information signal generation circuit (305, 316)
produces timing signals for driving the hands and generating sound in response to the starting
signal. An information signal generating circuit (312) outputs an operation generation signal to
a motor driving circuit (307) and/or a sound signal generation circuit (310) according to
preselected numbers of hand movement operation steps and frequencies of sound generation
read out from an information operation storing circuit. Thus, the analog electronic timepiece
can inform the predetermined condition of the timepiece not only audibly by sound but visually
by hands movement.

Abstract: A system and method for providing personal communications services are disclosed. A
bridging and signaling unit (109) implements a bridge for connecting telephone calls between a caller,
a called party, and an alternate destination. A caller who calls the personal telephone number
associated with a called party is held at the bridging and signaling unit (109) while waiting for a return
telephone call from the called party. The called party is alerted to the existence of the call
through a paging system. If the time period during which the caller is on hold exceeds a time-out
period, the caller will be connected to an alternate destination, such as a secretary, an answering
service, or a voice messaging system. If the called party places the return telephone call while
the caller is connected to the alternate destination, the called party will be connected to the caller
and the alternate destination in such a manner that that the called party can hear the conversation
between the caller and the alternate destination, but the caller and the alternate destination cannot
hear the called party and do not know that the called party has connected, i.e. the called party is
on mute mode. After screening the call, the called party may then indicate that he/she wishes to
be connected to the caller, at which time the connection to the alternate destination is terminated
and the caller and the called party are connected such that they can speak with each other. If the
called party does not wish to speak to the caller, he/she may hang up, and the connection
between the caller and the alternate destination may continue.

Abstract: A contactless interface (20) for transfer of data between a semiconductor
music chip (16) and a solid state audio player (12) comprises a set of conductive
plates or electrodes (55-58, 65-68) with outer dielectric surfaces on both the music
chip and the audio player. Corresponding capacitive plates on the music chip and
audio player facilitate data communication by forming a series of capacitors once the
music chip is inserted within the audio player so that the capacitive plates of each
device are aligned and in close proximity with one another. In one embodiment of
the invention a set of four capacitive plates is included on both the music chip and
the audio player forming four capacitors. In this arrangement, two plates on each
device are utilized to transmit data and two plates are utilized to receive data. The
date is serially transferred between devices in a differential scheme utilizing
differential receive and drive amplifiers. The differential data transfer minimizes
transmission errors and makes the audio player less susceptible to noise. Contacts
