FLEXIBLE DATA INPUT DEVICE
First Claim
1. A data input device suitable for inputting data to electronic processing means and configured to produce an output in response to a mechanical interaction, wherein said data input device has a first flexible configuration, in which said device may be bent or flexed about a first axis, and a second rigid configuration in which said data input device is substantially rigid such that bending or flexing of said device about said first axis is inhibited.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a data input device suitable for inputting data to electronic processing means. The data input device is configured to produce an output in response to a mechanical interaction and may be reconfigured into two operational configurations. In a first flexible configuration the device may be bent or flexed about a first axis, and in a second rigid configuration the data input device is substantially rigid such that bending or flexing of the device about the first axis is inhibited.
