Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for updating/modifying/upgrading the system configuration of a stand alone non-network connectible device. The method is performed while a portable device is docked to the non-network connectible device. System configuration update information is embedded within the ordinary data content that is received from the portable device during the routine operation of the stand alone non-network connectible device. Upon receiving the embedded system configuration update information the non-network connectible device decrypts the embedded information and updates the system configuration accordingly. Generation of the embedded system configuration update information is performed in the portable docking device, and installation is performed on the non-network connectible device without requiring a network connection in the stand alone device.

Abstract: In a first aspect, there is provided a method for mounting a handheld device onto a host apparatus including a movable supporting structure for the handheld device. The method includes coupling a female connector of the handheld device with a male connector of the host apparatus, the male connector being positioned at an incline, with a head of the male connector facing towards a rear end of the host apparatus; resting a first edge of the handheld device against a surface of the host apparatus to minimize a force acting on the male connector caused by a mass of the handheld device when coupling the female connector to the male connector; and using either a finger or a thumb of a user to position the supporting structure to contact a back face of the handheld device, with the supporting structure subsequently being positioned to vary a resting angle for the handheld device. Preferably, the male connector acts as a pivot when the supporting structure varies the resting angle for the handheld device. In another aspect, the method may also be employed where the handheld device includes a male connector and the host apparatus includes a female connector. It should be noted that many facets of the method are identical regardless of the respective positions of the male and female connectors.
