Abstract
A tablet cover (100) and circuitry (400) provide for convenient connection of a tablet (105) or other personal electronic device to additional memory, functions, and features as provided by an internal device (215) and/or an external device (160). The circuitry selectively connects the tablet, the external device, and the additional memory together. The additional memory is internal to the case and is thereby protected from loss or damage due to accidental impact.
