Claim Text:
1. A method of forming a layered component of an electronic device, the method comprising: reversing a pocket formed by a thermoformed film, the thermoformed film having a smooth finish on a smoother side forming the pocket and a rougher side having a finish that is rougher than the smoother side, so that a concave surface portion of the smoother side of the thermoformed film facing inwardly towards an interior cavity of the pocket changes into a convex surface portion facing outwardly away from an interior cavity of a new resulting pocket formed from the rougher side as a result of said reversing; and injecting a resin core into the interior of the new pocket and into contact with the rougher side to thereby combine the resin core and new pocket of the reversed film into a layered component having the smoother side of the reversed film facing away from the core.
