    Abstract: An improved electrical connector and jack is provided. The electrical connector includes a main connector housing and a stereo plug protruding from a front surface of the main connector housing. A first pair of electrical contact pins is supported by the main connector housing on a first side of the stereo plug, and a second pair of electrical contact pins is supported by the main connector housing on a second side of the stereo plug opposite the first side of the stereo plug. An alignment feature protrudes from the front surface of the main connector housing adjacent the stereo plug, providing orientation key and anti-rotation functions to be provided with a narrower profile.

    Abstract: An ergonomic pointing device receives commands from a user for controlling an electronic device. The ergonomic pointing device generally comprises a shaft, a roller, and a frame. The shaft comprises a ground spring contact and two direction-sensing spring contacts. The roller is disposed around the shaft so that the roller is free to rotate about the longitudinal axis of the shaft. The inside of the roller comprises a conductive surface that is arranged to remain in electrical contact with the ground spring contact of the shaft throughout the entire revolution of the roller. The conductive surface is also arranged to alternately make and break electrical contact with the direction-sensing spring contacts during an entire revolution of the roller such that the direction and speed of the revolution of the roller can be determined. The shaft is free to move along the Z-axis but not to rotate about its longitudinal axis.
