Abstract
In a portable information apparatus having a card connector (1) for connecting a card (10) such as an IC card, a connector holding member (3) and a pair of guide members (4) are movable between both sides of a principal surface (2a) of a case member (2). The card is used for expanding function of the portable information apparatus. The connector holding member is for holding the card connector. The guide members are for guiding the card in parallel to the principal surface. When the connector holding member (3) and the guide members (4) are placed at one side of the principal surface (2a) to protrude outwardly from the case member (2), it is possible to connect the card (10) with the card connector (1). When the card (10) is not used, the connector holding member (3) and the guide members (4) are placed at another side of the principal surface (2a).
