// Entry for Blackboard reader device challenge
- I've kept the device as slim as possible, only widening it at the area where the card goes in. This also makes the device more ergonomic for hand-held use.
- The two metal stripes not only make the device more aesthetically appealing, but can potentially serve as antennae for better signal reception.
- The battery is removable, housed underneath a removable sliding cover on the rear. Under the battery, lie the screws that hold the whole device together.
- The device has user feedback LEDs for accept/deny, and backlit bluetooth and low battery indicators.
- The on/off switch is located on the left of the device and the USB charging port on the bottom.
- The charging station has a heavy base so that it has a low center of gravity and be more stable.
- This stand can also be screwed to a suitable surface.
- The on/off status can be indicated by back-lighting the arrows below the card slot.
