STYLUS WITH TOUCH-SENSITIVE RETENTION CLIP
A stylus includes an elongate gripping member terminating at a writing tip, a communication interface housed within the elongate gripping member, a touch-sensitive retention clip extending from the elongate gripping member, and a controller housed within the elongate gripping member. The communication interface is configured to wirelessly communicate with a computing device. The controller is configured to detect a position or movement of a finger along a length of the touch-sensitive retention clip, and send to the computing device, via the communication interface, information based on the position or movement of the finger along the length of the touch-sensitive retention clip.

Tablet with Interconnection Features
The present invention provides tablets with interconnection features and a system of multiple tablet assemblies removably interconnected to one another. The tablets may be removably mounted to a vertical surface or positioned on a horizontal surface. Features of the present invention allow a user to remove or move one tablet from the system without disrupting or moving the other tablets.
Writing implement with reverse clip cap
A removable cap for receiving a writing implement includes a reverse clip. The cap has a hollow crown section for receiving the writing implement and an elongate cap extension that extends axially from the hollow crown section and includes an end that terminates in a clip flange. An elongate holding prong projecting substantially perpendicular from the clip flange and extending and opening toward the closed first end of the crown section in substantially parallel-spaced relation to the cap extension so as to define in conjunction with the cap extension and the hollow crown section, an elongate U-shaped slot, which is adapted to snugly engage an attachment material inserted into the slot. A gripping member is located within the U-shaped slot and is configured to intimately engage the attachment material inserted into the slot to assist in maintaining the engagement between the cap and attachment material when the writing implement is removed from the cap.
Structure for mounting a clip for a writing implement
A structure for mounting a clip for a writing implement that includes (i) a pivotable clip which includes a stationary coupling portion extending along a reference axis; a main body that is pivotable in a pivot plane containing the reference axis, having two sidewalls each comprising a pivot-limiting hook; and a resiliently deformable curved portion connecting the main body to the coupling portion, enabling the main body to pivot relative to the coupling portion; (ii) a receiving member for receiving the coupling portion of the clip.
