`
`A hand-held device that provides communication services
`and symbol processing is described. The device includes a
`case having a front side comprising a display and a lid
`having a transparent portion through which the display can
`be seen in a lid-closed state. In one version, the hand-held
`device comprises
`a QWERTY keyboard including an
`arrangement of digits as in a touch-tone telephone keypad
`arrangement.
`In another version,
`the display includes a
`handwriting area for data entry using a stylus or other screen
`data entry device. In a closed position, the lid extends over
`the display and the keyboard, leaving another user input
`device physically accessible to touch for receiving input
`wherein the device performs processing responsive to
`receiving input from the physically accessible user input
`device in the lid closedstate.

`lid while at the sametime providing a protective cover of the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`device’s display. The lid itself can also be used to perform
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`functions. For example, closing the lid may turn off the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`display and place the device in a powersaving state. In one
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`embodiment,
`the power saving state does not affect the
`
`
`
`
`processing of the radio module.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`In one embodiment, the front side of the device further
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`has a keyboard. An example of a keyboard that may be used
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`is a QWERTYkeyboard. Thelid in this embodiment extends
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`over the keyboard in the lid closed state. In another aspect
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`of this embodiment, the keyboard may comprise an arrange-
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`ment of the symbols “0” to “9” in a traditional telephone
`
`
`
`
`
`
`keypad arrangement. This similar arrangement advanta-
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`geously allows a user to adjust to using the keypad more
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`readily than if the user had to learn a new arrangement.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Sinilarly,
`in another aspect, a key associated with the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`telephone keypad arrangement has a telephone keypad key
`

`
`

`indicator for distinguishing a telephone keypad key from
`
`

`
`
`other types of keys of the keyboard. This advantageously

`device.

`BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

`
`1. Field of the Invention
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The present invention relates generally to systems and
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`methods for a hand-held computing device providing com-
`
`
`
`
`
`munication services and symbol processing.
`
`
`
`
`2. Description of the Related Art
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The integration of services into hand-held devices such as
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`personal digital assistants often involves an increased cost of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`time to the user to adapt to a new man-machineinterface.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The man-machineinterface aspect of the data entry mecha-
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`nisms is crucial
`to decreasing the learning curve time
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`customers needto fully utilize the device for performing its
`various functions in order to decrease customerfrustration.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The ease of manipulation of data entry mechanisms
`
`
`
`
`
`enhances the overall device experience.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`It is desirable to strike an appropriate balance between
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`burdening the user with a bulkier device on the one hand
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`with dedicated data entry mechanismsaspart of the physical
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`interface and on the other hand providing a more limited
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`man-machine interface requiring the user to have to learn
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`more data entry techniques or to consume more timefor data
`
`entry.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`The man-machine interface impacts the acceptability of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`the device to users because it impacts the extent of services
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`provided, the effective use of the services, and the overall
`
`
`reliability of the device.
