Abstract
An electronic device includes three substantially planar panels. The first panel has a first side edge and a second side edge, and includes a display. The second panel includes a first interface and is hingedly coupled to the first side edge of the first panel. The third panel includes a second interface and is hingedly coupled to the second side edge of the first panel. The device is configured in at least two positions. In a first position the first interface and the second interface are obscured and in a second position the first interface and the second interface are exposed. Such a device can be a gamer with a first gaming interface and a second gaming interface, or it can be an electronic device with PDA technology through a first keyboard and a second keyboard. Alternatively, the device can be a communicator or a music player.
