Claim:
1. A system for enabling a modular mobile electronic device, the system comprising: a module communication network, comprising a network switch, wherein on the module communication network data is directly transferred between a first module and a second module of the modular mobile electronic device simultaneous with direct data transfer between a third module and a fourth module of the modular mobile electronic device; a module power network, comprising a floating-voltage power bus, wherein the module power network enables power transfer between modules of the modular mobile electronic device; a module power network battery electrically coupled to the module power network; a plurality of module interfaces that removably and electrically couple respective modules of the modular mobile electronic device to the module power network and the module communication network; and a plurality of power management units, wherein each of the plurality of power management units electrically connects at least one of the plurality of module interfaces to the floating-voltage power bus, wherein each of the plurality of power management units controls and monitors power transfer between the floating-voltage power bus and the respective module interface that such power management unit electrically connects to the floating-voltage power bus.
