Abstract

A system (10) for providing radio communication of data between a central processing computer (18) having a first transceiver (20) electrically connected thereto and a remotely located hand held personal computer (12). The personal computer includes an input and output device (28) mounted to the housing to allow interaction by a user. A second transceiver (102) is provided in a transceiver/handle housing (16). The transceiver/handle housing (16) is configured to be grasped by a single hand of a user. A spacing bracket (126) joins the second housing to the housing of the personal computer. An electrical connection provides for electric communication between the personal computer (12) and the second transceiver (102) so that data can be transmitted between the central processing computer (18) and the personal computer (12) by the first and second transceivers.
