A mobile interface device receiving input from a stylus is provided to remotely control application programs running on a host computer. Such an interface device provides convenient access to any resource of the host computer, including, for example, a sharable database. An embodiment of such an interface device includes a pen-based graphical interface which communicates with an operating system on the host computer. In that embodiment, the operating system on the host computer has handwriting recognition capability.

A portable electronic apparatus includes first and second modules, and a control unit. The first module includes a first charging circuit to be coupled to a first power source, and a first battery unit coupled to the first charging circuit. The second module is connected removably to the first module, and includes a second charging circuit to be coupled to a second power source, and a second battery unit coupled to the second charging circuit. The control unit enables the first and second battery units to be charged independently and respectively through the first and second charging circuits using the first and second power sources when the second module is disconnected from the first module, and enables the first and second battery units to be charged through the first charging circuit using the first power source when the second module is connected to the first module.

A portable electronic device includes a base module and an LCD module. The base module includes a housing that has front and rear end portions and opposite first and second sides that extend between the front and rear end portions, and a pair of pivots mounted on the rear end portion of the housing and disposed adjacent to the first and second sides of the housing, respectively. Each of the pivots is rotatable relative to the housing. The LCD module has opposite first and second sides, each of which is formed with an elongated guiding groove that receives and that engages slidably a respective one of the pivots therein.
