The present invention relates to a mobile phone device that can provide a ten-key input function.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a desktop personal computer or the like, a mouse can be connected as a standard input device so that the personal computer can be operated intuitively, easily and quickly. In portable information processing terminals such as notebook computers, small pointing devices such as touchpads, trackballs, and pointing sticks are standard instead of mice in order to improve operability while emphasizing portability. It has been incorporated.

Also, in such a notebook type personal computer, importance is placed on portability, and in order to reduce the size of the notebook personal computer so that it can be carried to various places outdoors, it is necessary to input numbers from a keyboard as an input device. Many omit the numeric keypad.

On the other hand, in an environment surrounding a portable information processing terminal in recent years, a portable telephone device such as a portable telephone or a PHS is used as a communication means at a place where the user is outside, and a host installed in a company or the like via a wireless telephone line. The so-called mobile computing that performs data communication by connecting to a computer has been actively performed. Therefore, it is common to carry a portable information processing terminal and a portable telephone device at the same time for mobile computing.

Compared with a mouse that has a form that is easy to adjust to the hand, there is a problem that the cursor is quickly moved to a position desired by the user, and the usability when operating the portable information processing terminal quickly and comfortably is poor.

In many portable information processing terminals, the numeric keypad is omitted, and when trying to enter a number, a numeric key arranged in a line on the alphabet key is used or an alphabet key is used. The numeric keys assigned to the keyboard must be switched using a shift key, etc., so that it is difficult to input numbers quickly, erroneous input is likely to occur, and the operability is poor when compared with the numeric keys on a general keyboard. There was also.

On the other hand, in order to solve such operational problems, it is conceivable to carry a mouse or a numeric keypad. However, in that case, the number of points to carry when moving is increased, and the most important portable information processing terminal is used. The convenience at the time of moving, which is a characteristic, is impaired. Particularly, in an environment where it is essential to carry a mobile phone device such as a mobile phone and a PHS together with a mobile information processing terminal as in recent years, a mouse and a numeric keypad are also carried in addition to such a mobile phone device. There was a problem that things were troublesome.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and has been made in consideration of the above-described problems, and is capable of greatly improving the operability of a portable information processing terminal without impairing the convenience of moving the information processing terminal. It is intended to provide a telephone device.
