Claim:
1. A device-holding case assembly for an electronic device, the device-holding case assembly comprising: a device-holding panel assembly for removably retaining a select device, the select device having a select feature function operable via a posterior device portion, the device-holding panel assembly comprising an anterior device-support portion, a posterior case interface portion, a series of resilient device retention elements, a landscape pivot panel, a portrait pivot panel, a corner pivot panel, a medial-proximal panel, a landscape pivot section, a portrait pivot section, and a first material construction; and a case construction, the case construction for selectively enabling (a) device-holding panel assembly access and (b) device-holding panel assembly encasement and comprising an anterior case portion, a posterior case portion, an anterior-to-posterior junction section, and a second material construction, the anterior case portion being pivotal relative to the posterior case portion via the anterior-to-posterior junction section for selectively (a) uncovering the anterior device-support portion in open case configurations, the open case configurations comprising a device-display configuration and (b) covering the anterior device-support portion in a closed case configuration, the first and second material constructions being magnetically attractive for selectively and magnetically fastening the device-holding panel assembly to the case construction; the series of resilient device retention elements for resiliently retaining the select device in anterior adjacency to the anterior device-support portion, the landscape pivot section being orthogonal to the portrait pivot section, the landscape pivot section pivotally separating the landscape pivot panel and the corner pivot panel from the portrait pivot panel and the medial-proximal panel, the portrait pivot section pivotally separating the portrait pivot panel and the corner pivot panel from the landscape pivot panel and the medial-proximal panel, the landscape pivot panel and the corner pivot panel being pivotal about the landscape pivot section relative to the medial-proximal panel and the portrait pivot panel for forming a landscape feature-enabling edge, the portrait pivot panel and the corner pivot panel being pivotal about the portrait pivot section relative to the medial-proximal panel and the landscape pivot panel for forming a portrait feature-enabling edge, the corner pivot panel being co-extensive with both the landscape pivot panel and the portrait pivot panel and pivotal about both the landscape pivot section and the portrait pivot section, the landscape feature-enabling edge and the portrait feature-enabling edge selectively enabling said select feature function when said series of resilient device retention elements resiliently retain said select device.
