Abstract

A shell for a portable telecommunication system ( 3 ) comprises a surface defining a hollow volume, suitable for being mechanically connected in a removable manner to a portable telecommunication system ( 2 ), said portable telecommunication system ( 2 ) being able to be inserted, at least partially, in the hollow volume, said portable telecommunication system ( 2 ) comprising a memory suitable for storing a computer document, the shell being characterized in that it comprises a communication unit suitable for receiving a document stored in the memory from the portable telecommunication system ( 2 ), and a miniature printing device ( 1 ) for documents, suitable for receiving said computer document via the communication unit and for printing same.

1 .- 37 . (canceled) 
     
     
         38 . A cover for a portable telecommunications device comprising:
 a bottom portion;   a top portion opposite of the bottom portion, wherein the top portion is configured to be mechanically connected to a portable telecommunications device comprising a camera and memory system configured to store at least one computer document, and wherein the top portion is configured to allow for the portable telecommunications device to be at least partially insertable into a portion of the top portion;   a communication system housed at least partially within the top portion, wherein the communication system is configured to receive the at least one computer document stored on the memory system of the portable telecommunications device; and   a printing device housed at least partially within the bottom portion.   
     
     
         39 . The cover for a portable telecommunications device of  claim 38 , wherein the printing device comprises at least one electronic control board and a printer, wherein the printer configured to be controlled by the electronic board. 
     
     
         40 . The cover for a portable telecommunications device of  claim 38 , wherein the printing device further comprises a battery, wherein the battery is configured to power the printer. 
     
     
         41 . The cover for a portable telecommunications device of  claim 40 , wherein the printing device comprises a power connector, wherein the power connector is configured to be connected to the battery. 
     
     
         42 . The cover for a portable telecommunications device of  claim 38 , further comprising at least one control transfer area within the top portion, wherein the at least one control transfer area is configured to transfer a signal for activating at least one button of the portable telecommunications device from the portable telecommunications device to the first portion, wherein the at least one button of the portable telecommunications device is configured to operate specific functions of the portable telecommunication device. 
     
     
         43 . The cover for a portable telecommunications device of  claim 38 , wherein the bottom portion and the top portion are further configured to leave the optical functionalities of the portable telecommunication device uncovered when the portable telecommunication device is at least partially inserted into the top portion. 
     
     
         44 . The cover for a portable telecommunications device of  claim 38 , wherein the top portion does not cover a screen of the portable telecommunications device. 
     
     
         45 . The cover for a portable telecommunications device of  claim 38 , wherein the top portion does not cover a photographic sensor of the portable telecommunications device. 
     
     
         46 . A method comprising:
 receiving a selection of a photo to be printed at a portable telecommunications device;   detecting a movement on a surface of a screen of the portable telecommunications system;   comparing the movement with a predetermined movement corresponding with a launch of a print, wherein the predetermined movement includes a continuous shift of an amplitude higher than a predetermined amplitude;   if comparing yields a positive results, triggering a printing operation at a printing device that is mechanically and removable connected to the portable telecommunications device.   
     
     
         47 . A method comprising:
 displaying a picture to be printed on a screen of a portable telecommunications device;   receiving a selection of the picture to be printed at the portable telecommunications device; and   displaying a plurality of pictures, each one corresponding to a translational movement of a previous picture to be printed towards a printing slot are successively and repeatedly displayed on the screen, the translational movement being synchronized with a printing speed.
