Abstract: A wallet or case to hold data cards such as credit cards and identification cards. The wallet includes two panels joined by an elastic or expanding and contracting structure so that the wallet may expand top accommodate more cards, and contract to hold less cards and maintain a downward bias or pressure on the stack of cards in the wallet. The wallet includes complementary structures on the two panels to interfere with each other in a lateral direction to limit or prevent the lateral displacement of one panel relative to the other. The structures may include posts and receivers in the panels. In some embodiments, the posts and receivers include additional enhancements to allow the structures to remain in interface for a greater distance of wallet expansion and contraction.
Abstract: A laminated camera protector for a portable electronic device, the protector including adhesive layers to position the glass layer of the screen protector within 0.1 mm of the lens surface to reduce or eliminate flaring from a flash. The protector may further include a light isolating insert axially aligned with the camera flash.
Abstract: Disclosed herein is a case or cover for protecting the housing of a folding portable electronic device such as a smart phone with a folding display. The case or cover includes a first and second portion hingedly joined to a hinge protecting portion. The case or cover allows the encase phone to lie flat when in the fully opened position and included thinner first and second case portions proximate to the hinge cover to minimize the gaps between the case portions during the transition from a fully open to a fully closed position.
Abstract: Disclosed herein is a case for a portable electronic device. The case has a back wall and a plurality of side walls for retaining the portable electronic device. The back wall includes a storage area. A cover is hingedly attached to the back wall to selectively cover the storage area. The storage area includes a grip for retaining edges of data cards.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an electronic device encasement which not only encases and protects the electronic device, it allows for storage and presentation of one or more data cards. As the encasement device operator initiates access to the stored data card by opening a protective storage cover, the accessing action initiates a subsequent mechanical response which presents the card by a separating action from the encasement and the other possible stored items, as to allow for easier access and use of the one or more data cards. The storage and presentment mechanisms include a plurality of pockets, grips, and other structures to secure and present the cards.
