A system for holding an electronic device comprising a first substrate, a pocket assembly, and a fastener system comprising first, second, third, fourth, and fifth fasteners. The first substrate is adapted to be supported by a wearer. The pocket assembly is adapted to hold the electronic device. The first and second fasteners are rigidly connected to the pocket assembly, while the third, fourth, and fifth fasteners are rigidly connected to the substrate. In a first mode, the first fastener engages the third fastener and the second fastener engages the fourth fastener to attach the pocket assembly to the first substrate. In a second mode, the first fastener engages the third fastener and the second fastener engages the fifth fastener to attach the pocket assembly to the first substrate.

I claim: 1. A system for holding an electronic device comprising: a first substrate adapted to be supported by a wearer; a second substrate adapted to be supported by a wearer; a pocket assembly adapted to hold the electronic device; a fastener system comprising first and second fasteners rigidly connected to the pocket assembly, and third, fourth, and fifth fasteners rigidly connected to the first substrate; whereby the first fastener engages the third fastener and the second fastener engages the fourth fastener to attach the pocket assembly to the first substrate in a first position; the first fastener engages the third fastener and the second fastener engages the fifth fastener to attach the pocket assembly to the first substrate in a second position; and the first fastener engages the second fastener to place the pocket assembly in a loop configuration in which the pocket assembly extends around at least a portion of the second substrate to secure the pocket assembly to the second substrate. 2. A system as recited in claim 1, in which the pocket assembly comprises a flexible rear panel, where the rear panel is folded such that the first fastener can engage the second fastener when the pocket assembly is placed in the loop configuration. 3. A system as recited in claim 1, in which the first substrate is adapted to be supported by an upper torso of the wearer such that the third fastener is adjacent to the wearer's shoulder, the fourth fastener is adjacent to the wearer's chest, and the fifth fastener is adjacent to the wearer's back. 4. A system as recited in claim 3, in which the second substrate is a belt. 5. A system as recited in claim 1, in which the second substrate is a belt. 6. A system for holding an electronic device comprising: a first substrate adapted to be supported by a wearer; a pocket assembly adapted to hold the electronic device; and a fastener system comprising first and second fasteners rigidly connected to the pocket assembly, and third, fourth, and fifth fasteners rigidly connected to the first substrate; whereby the first fastener engages the third fastener and the second fastener engages the fourth fastener to attach the pocket assembly to the first substrate in a first position; the first fastener engages the third fastener and the second fastener engages the fifth fastener to attach the pocket assembly to the first substrate in a second position; and the third, fourth, and fifth fasteners are spaced from each other such that the electronic device is supported substantially in front of the wearer when the pocket assembly is in the first position; and the electronic device is supported substantially behind of the wearer when the pocket assembly is in the second position. 7. A system as recited in claim 6, further comprising a second substrate, in which the first fastener engages the second fastener to place the pocket assembly in a loop configuration in which the pocket assembly extends around at least a portion of the second substrate to secure the pocket assembly to the second substrate. 8. A system as recited in claim 7, in which the pocket assembly comprises a flexible rear panel, where the rear panel is folded such that the first fastener can engage the second fastener when the pocket assembly is placed in the loop configuration. 9. A system as recited in claim 6, in which the first substrate is an article of clothing. 10. A system as recited in claim 9, in which, when the article of clothing is worn, the third fastener is adjacent to the wearer's shoulder, the fourth fastener is adjacent to the wearer's chest, and the fifth fastener is adjacent to the wearer's back. 11. A system as recited in claim 6, in which: the first, fourth, and fifth fasteners are of a first type; and the second and third fasteners are of a second type, where the first and second types of fasteners are complementary such that fasteners of the first type engage fasteners of the second type to form a detachable attachment system. 12. A system as recited in claim 11, in which: the first type of fastener is one of a female snap fastener and a male snap fastener; and the second type of fastener is another of a female snap fastener and a male snap fastener. 13. A system as recited in claim 11, in which: the first type of fastener is one of a button and a button hole; and the second type of fastener is another of a button and a button hole. 14. A system as recited in claim 11, in which: the first type of fastener is one of a hook fabric and a loop fabric; and the second type of fastener is another of a hook fabric and a loop fabric. 15. A system as recited in claim 11, in which: the first type of fastener is one of a female fastener and a male fastener; and the second type of fastener is another of a female fastener and a male fastener. 16. A method of holding an electronic device comprising the steps of: supporting a first substrate on a wearer; providing a pocket assembly adapted to hold the electronic device; rigidly connecting first and second fasteners to the pocket assembly; rigidly connecting third, fourth, and fifth fasteners to the substrate; attaching the pocket assembly to the first substrate in a first position by engaging the first fastener with the third fastener and the second fastener with the fourth fastener; and attaching the pocket assembly to the first substrate in a second position by engaging the first fastener with the third fastener and the second fastener with the fifth fastener; spacing the third, fourth, and fifth fasteners from each other such that the electronic device is supported substantially in front of the wearer when the pocket assembly is in the first position; and the electronic device is supported substantially behind of the wearer when the pocket assembly is in the second position. 17. A method as recited in claim 16, further comprising the steps of: providing a second substrate; and placing the pocket assembly in a loop configuration in which the pocket assembly extends around at least a portion of the second substrate; and securing the pocket assembly to the second substrate by engaging the first fastener with the second fastener. 18. A method as recited in claim 17, in which: the step of providing the pocket assembly comprises the step of providing a flexible rear panel; and the step of securing the pocket assembly to the second substrate in the third mode comprises the steps of folding the rear panel to place the pocket assembly in the loop configuration, and engaging the first fastener with the second fastener. 19. A method as recited in claim 16, further comprising the step of arranging the substrate such that the third fastener is adjacent to the wearer's shoulder, the fourth fastener is adjacent to the wearer's chest, and the fifth fastener is adjacent to the wearer's back. 20. A method of holding an electronic device comprising the steps of: supporting a first substrate on a wearer; providing a pocket assembly adapted to hold the electronic device; rigidly connecting first and second fasteners to the pocket assembly; rigidly connecting third, fourth, and fifth fasteners to the substrate; attaching the pocket assembly to the first substrate in a first position by engaging the first fastener with the third fastener and the second fastener with the fourth fastener; attaching the pocket assembly to the first substrate in a second position by engaging the first fastener with the third fastener and the second fastener with the fifth fastener; and arranging the substrate such that the third fastener is adjacent to the wearer's shoulder, the fourth fastener is adjacent to the wearer's chest, and the fifth fastener is adjacent to the wearer's back.
