Various embodiments include, for example, a memory-card holder including a one-piece, unitary tray formed entirely from a bio-degradable material. The tray has a cover portion and a bottom portion formed therein. At least one of the cover portion and the bottom portion has an indentation to accept a digital memory-card. The tray further includes a protrusion area on at least three sides projecting outward from and substantially parallel to the cover portion and the bottom portion. A hinge is integrally formed into the unitary tray and between the cover portion and the bottom portion. The hinge is arranged to allow the cover portion to fold over the bottom portion of the tray. A closure tab and an insertion slot are formed on distal, opposing ends of the tray and arranged to latch the cover portion and the bottom portion to one another. Other devices, apparatuses, and arrangements are described.

Cases for tablet computers and methods are disclosed. An embodiment of one such case has an interface configured to allow the tablet computer to communicate with a removable storage device using a communication protocol not supported by the tablet computer, where the case is configured to contain at least a portion of the tablet computer therein.
