6. FYI: This is NOT a button
It is the bone conduction transducer! Bone conduction transmits audio directly to the innermost part of
the ear by means of a transducer, usually placed on the bone just in front of the ear. This does away with
the need for traditional headphones, has the advantage of increased privacy, and reduces the risk of
hearing loss. (Source: http://goo.gl/xEWkbw)
