Abstract
A pop-up electronic device has a keypad and display module arranged for slideable engagement with an outer cover wherein the keys of the keypad are nested within the outer cover in the device fully closed position and are exposed in the device fully open position. A protective window is in an overlapping relationship with the display in the device fully closed position and non-overlapping relationship with the display in the device fully open position to allow contact with and direct viewing of the display screen surface. The keypad and display module and protective window are mechanically arranged such that movement of the protective window in one direction causes the module to move in an opposite direction to change the electronic device between device fully open and fully closed positions.
