Abstract
A wireless communication device includes a housing including a front, a rear, a top, a bottom, a left side, and a right side, and a printed circuit board carried by the housing and carrying electronics for operation of the wireless communication device. The printed circuit board defines a plane, and a socket is disposed in the housing and connected to the circuit board. The socket is configured to allow substantially perpendicular receipt of a removable memory device relative to the plane defined by the printed circuit board, in a manner such that the socket defines a plane substantially perpendicular to the plane defined by the printed circuit board.
