Description Other than the cube variant that we heard about the Jackal carrying, traditional data-pad pads would likely exist. This variant was thought up with a friend that doesn't like to be named while on the subject of pull apart computers. Though he'll probably comment READ here somewhere  A data-pad that would both function as a traditional pad and slide apart to become a keyboard interface and a projected screen. 

When connected, the pad acts as normal, small screen and scroll able. However once its pulled apart, it converts into a keyboard/screen projection. The two halves are held at a correct distance by an energy field, much like the kind that acts as the base of a gravity conveyor. Two thumb sized holo-projectors turn the data-pad into a computer terminal. 

Design by me 

Halo (C) 343i and Bungie

Huh, that's pretty cool. Kinda looks like the ones in SPV3, except Black and with a Holographic Display. Neato.

This design was actually created before the introduction of the SPV3 datapad.  It seems the one in game was 'lifted' from this design.

It's been confirmed that the kig-yar make use of a similar device called a data module.

Hmm, well this thing was inspired by the assumption that they'd have something pad like :b
