A hand grippable combined keyboard and game controller system (100, 100') includes a pair of housings (102 and 104). One housing (102) is provided with a first surface portion which carries a group of first control switches (114) and a hand grip portion (110) which carries a group of third control switches (118). The other housing (104) includes a first surface portion (108) which carries a group of second control switches (116) and a hand grippable portion (112) which carries a group of fourth control switches (120). The signals from the groups of first control switches (114), second control switches (116), third control switches (118), and fourth control switches (120) define all of the lowercase alphabetic characters of an alphabet, which signals are generated without the use of chording. One housing (102) is provided with a connecting portion (178, 178') and the other housing (104) is provided with a connecting portion (180, 180'), the complementary connecting portions allowing the two housings (102 and 104) to be releasably joined together, or alternately releasably coupled to an adaptor (210). The adaptor (210) provides a docking port for coupling to a palm/tablet sized computing device (10).
