Method of using a communications device together with another communications device, a communications system, a communications device and an accessory device for use in connection with a communications device

A method of using a first mobile terminal together with at least one other mobile terminal, the method comprising:

• configuring an audio playback unit in a first mobile terminal to receive, store and play audio signals;
• receiving and converting into digital form in the first mobile terminal, contemporaneous voice signals;
• mixing the contemporaneous voice signals and the stored audio signals;
• and
• modulating and transmitting the mixed contemporaneous voice and stored audio signals from the first mobile terminal to at least one other mobile terminal through a common channel in a connection in over a communications network.

A method of using a first mobile terminal together with at least one other mobile terminal, the method comprising:

• establishing a connection through a network between the first mobile terminal and at least one other mobile terminal;
• establishing a telephone conversation by transmitting contemporaneous voice signals between a first mobile terminal to at least one other mobile terminal over a channel in a connection in a communications network;
• transmitting audio signals received by an audio playback unit in the first mobile terminal from a service provider via the communications network to the at least one other mobile terminal;
• and
• transmitting the same audio signals from the service provider via the communications network to the at least one other mobile terminal.

A communications system, comprising:

• a mobile telephone having an audio playback unit adapted to receive, store and play audio signals and a module adapted to receive, convert into digital form, modulate and transmit contemporaneous voice signals;
• at least one other communications device
• the audio playback unit operable to audibly play back stored audio signals and the mobile telephone operable to transmit the stored audio signals over a communications network to the at least one other communications device;
• and the at least one other communications device operable to audibly play back the audio signals, wherein the audible play back of the audio signals in the at least one other communications device occurs at least in part simultaneously with the audible play back of the audio signals in the mobile telephone.
