ABSTRACT:
An electronic device is provided making use of a touch pad module to implement user input functions. The electronic device includes a case having a region of thinner cross section than the remaining case side wall for receiving the touch pad module. The case is further provided with a through hole in the area of its thinner cross section for receiving control electronics of the touch pad module enabling the region of thinner cross section to physically support the touch pad module so that the module can be thinner than what is conventionally believed to be necessary to maintain its physical integrity while in use as an input device.
