For example, at least one or more of the configurations described as being disposed in the second rear case 235, such as the camera 121 of the second body 205, may be the first body 200, mainly the first rear case ( 225 may also be mounted. If so, there is an advantage that the configuration (s) disposed in the first rear case 225 in the closed state are protected by the second body 205. In addition, even if the camera 121 of the second body 205 is not provided separately, the camera 121 of the first body 200 is rotatably formed so that the photographing direction of the camera 121 of the second body 205 is rotated. It may be configured to shoot until.

Although two satellites are shown in FIG. 6, useful location information may be obtained by two or less or more satellites. The location information module 115 shown in FIG. 3 cooperates with the satellites 300 to obtain desired location information. Here you can track your location using GPS tracking technology as well as any technology that can track your location. In addition, at least one of the GPS satellites 300 may optionally or additionally be responsible for satellite DMB transmission.

During typical operation of a wireless communication system, BS 270 receives a reverse link signal from various terminals 100. At this time, the terminals 100 are connecting a call, transmitting or receiving a message, or performing another communication operation. Each of the reverse link signals received by a particular base station 270 is processed within by a particular base station 270. The data generated as a result of the processing is transmitted to the connected BSC 275. BSC 275 provides call resource allocation and mobility management functionality, including the organization of soft handoffs between base stations 270. In addition, the BSC 275 transmits the received data to the MSC 280, and the MSC 280 provides an additional transmission service for the connection with the PSTN 290. Similarly, PSTN 290 connects with MSC 280, MSC 280 connects with BSCs 275, and BSCs 275 send BSs 270 to transmit a forward link signal to terminals 100. ).

If you press the "OK" button in this state, the contents of the text message are sent with Gangna's phone number. Recipients who receive the text message check the text message and press the call button to speak with the "gangna".

9 is an exemplary view of a screen for delivering a phone number according to another embodiment of the present invention. The operation is similar to that in the example of FIG. 8. In general, this is almost the same as sending a text message. Perform the phone book menu to search for a phone number for example "gangna" (a), press the menu (b), and if the user selects the "forward phone number" menu, text message as in (c) The creation screen is displayed.
