Abstract
In one embodiment an electronic device comprises a body dimensioned to fit within a cavity of a housing, a display, an electrical interface comprising electrical contacts to establish an electrical connection with electrical contacts disposed in the cavity of the housing, logic configured to detect an activation signal for the display when the electronic device is disposed in the cavity in a first orientation and in response to the activation signal, activate at least a portion of the display that is visible through a viewing region when the electronic device is disposed in the cavity in the first orientation. Other embodiments may be described.

A housing for an electronic device, comprising:
- a body having a first major side and a second major surface and defining a cavity to receive the electronic device in a first orientation, wherein the first major surface defines:
- a viewing region to allow a view of a portion of the electronic device when the electronic device is disposed in the cavity;
- and
- a channel to receive the electronic device in a second orientation, different than the first orientation.
A system, comprising:
- an electronic device;
- and
- a housing for the electronic device, comprising:
- a body having a first major surface and a second major surface and defining a cavity to receive the electronic device in a first orientation, wherein the first major surface defines:
- a viewing region to allow a view of a portion of the electronic device when the electronic device is disposed in the cavity;
- and
- a channel to receive the electronic device in a second orientation, different than the first orientation.
An electronic device, comprising:
- a body dimensioned to fit within a cavity of a housing;
