Abstract

The invention provides a handset (10) that includes a finger-image sensor (64) that provides finger-image-related signals or data for authentication purposes and functions as a telephone handset for use with a computer terminal. The terminal and/or the handset is enabled to access or otherwise participate in at least one network-related function and voice communication, in response to an authentication. The handset includes an elongated housing (12) having opposed major sides (13a, 13b, 14a and 14b) and opposed ends (17 and 18). A
speaker (22) is positioned in the vicinity of a first end, a microphone (20) is positioned in the vicinity of a second end, and a finger-image sensor is positioned in the vicinity of and spaced from the second end. Circuitry for performing voice functions and finger-image functions are associated with separate USB ports, which are coupled to a USB hub of the handset.

4. The system of claim 1 or 3 wherein at least one of the computer terminals includes the means for authenticating.
5. The system of claim 1 or 3 comprising a computer in the network, other than the computer terminals, that include the means for authenticating.
6. The system of claim 1 or 3 wherein at least one of the computer terminals includes the means responsive to the authenticating means.
7. The system of claim 1 or 3 comprising a computer in the network, other than the computer terminals, that includes the means responsive to the authenticating means.
8. The system of claim 1 comprising a handset incorporating the microphone and the speaker, wherein the handset is keypadless and each computer terminal includes a computer input device by which information for accessing or otherwise participating in voice communications over the network is input to the computer terminal.
9. Apparatus for voice communication over a network through a computer terminal and for biometric identification, comprising:
a telephone handset including:
