  • Patent number: 8860632
    Abstract: A multi-panel device with a configurable interface is disclosed. In a particular embodiment, the device includes a hinge rotatably coupled to a first panel of the device via a first pin and rotatably coupled to a second panel of the device via a second pin. The first pin is engaged within a slot of the first panel to enable a lateral movement of the first panel relative to the second panel such that the first panel has a first range of motion relative to the second panel when the hinge is in an extended configuration and a second range of motion when the hinge is in a retracted configuration. The first range of motion is larger than the second range of motion.

  • Patent number: 8836611
    Abstract: A multi-panel device is disclosed. In a particular embodiment, the device includes a first hinge coupled to a first panel and coupled to a second panel. The first panel includes a first display surface and the second panel includes a second display surface. The second hinge is coupled to the second panel and coupled to a third panel that includes a third display surface. The device also includes a sensor coupled to the first hinge to detect a relative orientation of the first panel to the second panel. The device includes a processor responsive to the sensor to detect a device configuration. The processor is configured to adjust a user interface displayed at the first display surface, the second display surface, and the third display surface based on the detected device configuration.

  • Publication number: 20100214184
    Abstract: A multi-band antenna device includes a primary antenna with a helical component and a folded component. A wire is formed in a helix to construct the helical component and a wire is formed in a folded-over fashion to form the folded component. The folded component is disposed inside the helix. The helical component and folded component may be formed with separate wires or as one continuous wire. The primary antenna is for resonating in multiple frequency bands including a first frequency band correlated with the helical component and a second frequency band correlated with the folded component. A secondary antenna may be included to provide diversity and possibly other frequency bands. The secondary antenna includes a planar inverted F antenna.
