ABSTRACT:
A device for retaining an electronically readable card in an electronic device includes a substantially V-shaped resilient retainer dimensioned to engage a portion of the card while the rest of the card remains exposed for electronic reading purposes. The resilient retainer is held in the electronic device by a clip having a first detent member. The retainer includes a second detent member which engages the first detent member as the retainer enters the slit during insertion of the card into the electronic device. The thicknesses of the retainer and the card and the width of the slit are selected so that the resilient retainer is firmly held in the electronic device.
