Abstract:
A device directed to a combination computing and input device. The computing device providing a plurality of sides, each of the plurality of sides are disposed between an electronic display screen and a back of the computing device. The input device communicates with the computing device and provides a pair of control modules adjacent to and confining the computing device on at least two opposing sides of the computing device. The input device further provides a structural bridge securing the pair of control modules one to the other, and a touch sensitive input module. The structural bridge adaptively and snugly accommodate the length of the computing device. A first of the pair of control modules features a retention mechanism communicating with the structural bridge. The retention mechanism adaptively secures the structural bridge such that the pair of control modules snugly accommodate the length of the computing device.

Claim (Index 23):
The apparatus of  claim 19 , in which the computing device having a length greater than its width, and wherein the first means for attaching the input device to a computing device comprising:\n a pair of confinement structures, the pair of confinement structures interacting with the computing device and adjacent at least two opposing sides of the computing device, the at least two opposing sides adjacent the electronic display screen and define end points of the length of the computing device, the pair of confinement structures adapt to and are in pressing contact with said end points of the length of the computing device, each of the pair of confinement structures comprising a communication link, each of the communication links configured for electronic communication with the central processing unit; a rigid structural bridge disposed between and secured to the pair of confinement structures, the rigid structural bridge includes at least a passageway between the pair of confinement structures, the passageway promotes electrical communication between the communication link of a first confinement structure of the pair of confinement structures and the computing device, the passageway further promotes electrical communication between the communication link of a second confinement structure of the pair of confinement structures and the computing device; and wherein the input device is a pair of control modules, each control module of the pair of control modules mechanically interacting with a corresponding confinement structure of the pair of confinement structures, wherein each control module is a separate and distinct structure from the pair of confinement structures, forming no structural portion of the pair of confinement structures, and in which each of the pair of confinement structures are separate and distinct structures from the structural bridge, forming no structural portion of the structural bridge.
