Claim 3:
4. A transaction object reader device having a first connector that communicates with a second connector of a mobile device, the transaction object reader device comprising:
a transaction object reader interface, wherein the transaction object reader interface reads transaction information from a transaction object as a transaction information signal;
signal interface circuitry that is within a housing and that is coupled to the transaction object reader interface, wherein the signal interface circuitry processes the transaction information signal to generate a processed transaction information signal;
an interposer that is within the housing and that is coupled to the signal interface circuitry and to the first connector, wherein the interposer conveys the processed transaction information signal from the signal interface circuitry to the first connector, wherein the interposer affects a range of movement of the signal interface circuitry and the first connector relative to the housing; and
the first connector that is coupled to the interposer, wherein the first connector sends the processed transaction information signal to the second connector of the mobile device.
