Abstract
A cellular telephone incorporating a structural frame member having a side wall and a web, where each of these structural elements are made up of different materials. Through selection of side wall and web materials, an overall frame structure having a significantly reduced web thickness, as compared to conventional cellular telephones, can be obtained. This reduction in web thickness ultimately translates to a reduction in overall phone unit thickness, thus allowing for the production of a smaller, more compact cellular telephone.
