Abstract

A tablet computer with a docking sled type arrangement including a payment device of choice is provided. The docking sled can be removed from the tablet computer to provide protection to the payment device. The docking sled employs magnetic force to hold and compress electronic contacts. These contacts provide charging power to the docking sled and bi-directional communication. The docking can be oriented left or right to accommodate both left handed and right handed users.
