Abstract: In order to prevent unintentional actuation of a mobile telephone function, one or more functions are disabled while it is detected that the telephone is in an inactive state. The disabled function may include the transmission of a call set-up signal, the receiving of data messages, or the replacement of an audible call announcement by a vibratory one. Some or all of the functions operated by the keypad may be disabled. In the embodiments described, the inactive state is detected when the telephone (1) is placed in a holder (2). Detection may be by a magnet (4) in the holder which switches a Hall effect device (3) on the telephone, by mechanical actuation of a switch, or by a light or infra-red actuated switching device.
