A connecting system of a multi-section housing of an electronic device comprising: shafts between first and second housing sections and between third and fourth housing sections of superposed first to fourth housing sections to enable one section to be rotated 180 degrees with respect to another section after sliding superposed housing sections apart; first hinges which connect end faces of the second and third housing sections to be able to be rotated; and second hinges which connect opposite side end faces of the first and fourth housing sections, wherein the shafts enable the second and third housing sections to be slid with respect to the first and fourth housing sections and, in the finished slid state, the first and second hinges enable the second and third housing sections and first and fourth housing sections to be rotated about the shafts while being opened to thereby form a single flat surface.

A loader assembly includes a base, a moveable lock, a lower lock, and an upper lock. The base has a top side, a bottom side, a leading edge, and a trailing edge. The moveable lock is configured to move with respect to the base, and the moveable lock includes a tip portion configured to engage a storage media carrier. The lower lock extends from the top side of the base near the leading edge. And, the upper lock extends from the top side near the trailing edge.

A portable device (e.g., a wireless device such as a cell phone) is provided with a flexible keyboard and a flexible display screen. Such flexible components may be stored in the housing of the portable device when not in use. The flexible display screen and flexible keyboard may be expanded from the housing when the flexible components are utilized by a user. Non-flexible display and input components may be provided on the exterior of the portable device such that the device may be used, in some form, while the flexible components are stored. In one embodiment, a portion of the flexible display (or flexible keyboard) may be utilized when the flexible display (or flexible keyboard) is stored in said first housing.
