Abstract:
A telephone includes an indicator which alerts a user that the telephone has stopped receiving data and is ready for transmission. Thus, when operating as a speakerphone, the indicator alerts the user that the other party has stopped speaking and the user may begin speaking. The indicator may also indicate that the telephone is receiving data and the telephone is not ready for transmission.
