Description:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION  
       [0001]     The present invention relates generally to a display device, and more particularly, to such a portable and detachable display device and unit which is rotatable, tiltable, and removably attachable to a cellular phones and provides a user the option of a much larger viewing area and additional data storage for games, system files, information folders, etc.  
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION  
       [0002]     The recent advancement cell phone technology has led to breakthroughs that could only be appreciated on a large screen. The prior art discloses numerous different techniques for viewing or displaying devices. The conventional devices comprises inbuilt or permanently installed small viewing screens or display components. Many such systems, have screens that are to small for files to be displayed and does not offer additional storage space for the cell Phone. The Small nature of this installation causes increased complexity of service. Further these devices do not provide any system for large screen viewing. However, no such viewing or displaying system is available in the commercial market at the present time which is portable, simple, lightweight, rotatable, tiltable, and removably attachable to devices such as cellular phones, and provides a user the option of a much larger viewing area and additional data storage for games, system files, information folders, etc. or enables a user to individually and conveniently receive various wireless internet services in addition to the voice communication.  
         [0003]     U.S. Pat. No. 5,659,361 discloses a LCD viewfinder for a camcorder that enables a user to take pictures while viewing the LCD viewfinder. The viewfinder system includes: an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) viewfinder; a downwardly opened recess formed on a predetermined edge portion of the LCD viewfinder and having a first side wall, a second side wall, a back wall and a semicircular end; and a tiltable, rotatable and detachable compound joint assembly member fitted into the recess for tiltably, rotatably and detachably connecting the LCD viewfinder, whereby the LCD viewfinder can be tilted, rotated, and detached relative to the camcorder body. However, nothing is disclosed or suggested in this patent regarding a device which is simple, convenient, portable, and removably attachable to cellular phones, cameras, video cameras, or the like devices and provides a user the option of a much larger view viewing area and additional data storage for games, system files, information folders, etc.  
         [0004]     U.S. Patent Publication No. 20030064685 discloses a portable communication apparatus with a digital camera comprises: a first housing including an upper portion, a lower portion, a receiving space hollowed between the upper portion and the lower portion, and a planar surface provided at the bottom of the receiving space, a lens housing protruding from the upper portion in a longitudinal direction, a digital camera lens of the digital camera being exposed in a longitudinal direction of the lens housing; a second housing including an upper portion having a phone LCD and a phone keypad with a plurality of keys and a lower portion having a PDA touch screen, the PDA touch screen being adjacent to the planar surface in the phone operation mode, the phone keypad and the phone LCD being adjacent to the planar surface in the PDA operation mode; and a biaxial hinge unit for connecting the second housing to the first housing to allow the second housing to rotate about two perpendicular axes with respect to the first housing. This construction is also complex and expensive. Further, this construction can not be used with various types of cellular phones, cameras, video cameras, or the like devices.  
         [0005]     The features of the aforecited prior art disclose an expensive, complex, non portable device which can not be used with various types of cellular phones.
