Rockin’ (Design) Patent – Baltic Latvian Universal Electronics, LLC’s “Microphone”

  • Rockin’ (Design) Patent: US Design Patent No. D594,855 S
  • Filed: 29 September 2008

  • Title: Microphone
  • What’s claimed: “We claim the ornamental design for a microphone, as shown and described.”

    • This video appears to show the Mikey Digital in action…
