Disclosed is a translucent single layer touch screen device of a mesh composed of a low resistive material is configured so that the length of the pattern traces of the disclosed semi-transparent touch screen are arranged in the vertical direction, their circuitry terminating at one edge of the mesh. In a clam shell form factor mobile communication device, the circuitry coupled to the pattern traces of the mesh to receive touch signals is proximal the hinge edge, which is covered by artwork. There is no need for silver ink or other circuitry at the other edges of the mesh so that the above-described semi-transparent touch screen beneficially does not include any artwork on the other edges. Also disclosed are embodiments including rotator and slider form factors including the disclosed touch screen configuration. Accordingly, the disclosed unframed semi-transparent touch screen may provide advanced features and maintain an edge in design trends.
