摘要

A method, a master short range accessory, and an ad-hoc personal area network device for pairing with multiple slave communication devices are disclosed. An audio user interface (310) may interact with a user. A primary device interface component (372) may create a primary audio connection with a primary mobile communication device (502) to facilitate a primary telephone conversation session with a primary communication partner (512). A secondary device interface component (372) may create a secondary audio connection with the secondary mobile communication device (504) to facilitate a secondary telephone conversation session with a secondary communication partner (532) while maintaining the primary audio connection. A processor (330) may send an audio hold indication to the primary communication partner (512) and mutes the primary audio connection.
