Abstract

The device has an electronic box (1) including a wireless communication port (3) through which information from or at a destination of a memory card communicates using a push button (5). The push button controls a processor (6) through a printed circuit board (7) that connects all the components of the device, and operates using a battery (8) or an accumulator which is recharged by a USB port. An independent claim is also included for a method of exchanging personal or business information between two electronic boxes.
