The embodiments of the invention concern a keypad (120). The keypad can
include a membrane (143), at least one key with at least one flange 150
to overlap with at least one second flange of a second key (146), and at
least one audio port opening (107) in the membrane for providing a
passage of air from a transducer (101) positioned behind at least one key
through the keypad to a main volume area (112). For example, the audio
port opening can be in a region of the membrane between the keys, and the
overlapping of the flanges obscures a view of at least one audio port
opening.
