Patent attributes
An electronic device (200) comprises a touch screen (210), a pen-form stylus (170) for activating the touch screen (210), and a receptacle (220) located within or coupled to the electronic device (200) for storage of the pen-form stylus (170). The electronic device (200) comprises a flexible attachment mechanism (130) that is fixed to both the pen-form stylus (120) and the electronic device (230). The stylus (170) comprises a slot (150) such that the flexible attachment mechanism (130) is located within the slot (150). In this manner, an efficient geometry of the electronic device prevents the stylus being misplaced and enables the flexible attachment mechanism (130) to be located within the slot by the action of inserting the stylus (170) into the receptacle (220).
