NOVELTY - The tablet has a printed circuit substrate (PCS) that consists of conductive traces to communicate electrical signals among a touch-screen display module (406), battery (416), wireless interface, and processors. The battery, wireless interface, processors, and remaining portion of the touch-screen display module are fully embedded within a resin matrix (420). The resin matrix served as a conformal overall structural component of the tablet that fixes the touch-screen display module, battery, wireless interface, processors, and PCS in space relative to each other.    USE - For use in a portable multi-media touch-screen tablet for use in swimming pool, inclement weather, beach, and construction site.    ADVANTAGE - The minimum dimensions are determined for various portions of mid-frame that provides desired degree of overall portable multimedia device stiffness and ruggedness. Hence the components connected to the mid-frame are allowed to fit within target envelope for the portable multimedia device. The electrical connector ports are encapsulated in the resin matrix to prevent moisture from the electrical connector ports from reaching other functional components within the resin matrix. The display modules are manufactured such that slight air gap or expansion gap exists between the cover glass for protecting the display elements and the substrate supporting the display elements. Since the air gap is sealed around the perimeter of the display portion by gasket, sealant, or adhesive, the dust or other contaminants including liquids such as liquid resin are prevented from entering the air space between the cover glass and the substrate.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for the following:    (1) a portable multi-media touch-screen electronic device; and    (2) a method for manufacturing portable multi-media touch-screen electronic device.    DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The drawing shows a schematic view of the portable multimedia device.
