Abstract

An electronic device (100), suitable for operation in a compact configuration, a portrait configuration, and a landscape configuration includes a first housing (102) and a second housing (104) coupled to the first housing. A data coupler (502) electronically couples the first housing with the second housing, and a bar linkage slides the first housing and the second housing in a non-linear motion with respect to each other.
