The base unit is comprised of an alpha-numeric keyboard with recessed keys, a cradle, a super-twist screen, a printer, and an infrared transmitter. The remote unit is comprised of an infrared receiver and a display screen. A user types information on the base unit which is displayed on the base unit's screen. The same information is simultaneously transmitted and displayed by infrared transmission link to the remote unit and displayed on the remote unit's screen.
