ABSTRACT To reduce overuse of built-in connectors of a pocket computer an adapter or docking station is provided. The docking station defines a receptacle, i.e., a recess, having a size and shape complementary with the computer with which it will be used. This receptacle has, located in the side wall(s) thereof, connector(s) which are complementary to the connectors provided on the exterior of the computer. The docking station includes a switchable internal interface, at least one built-in piece of peripheral equipment in modular form, and at least one connector for coupling to an external data source or user. The switchable internal interface, in a preferred embodiment, may be used to selectively establish communication between any two of the computer, the built-in peripheral and the external connector.
