Abstract

L'objectif de l'invention est d'améliorer le confort d'utilisation d'un appareil manuel électronique compacte, en particulier d'un téléphone mobile ou sans fil, tant lors de son utilisation proprement dite que lorsqu'on le tient dans la main. A cet effet, l'interface de commande de cet appareil, en particulier du téléphone mobile ou sans fil, qui, habituellement, est constituée d'une unité d'affichage ou d'un écran et d'un clavier, est conçue de telle sorte que, lors de l'utilisation de l'appareil, donc lorsque l'appareil se trouve dans une main, l'écran, contrairement à ce qui était le cas jusqu'ici, ne se trouve pas au-dessus du clavier mais en-dessous de celui-ci. Ainsi, il est possible, pour l'utilisateur de cet appareil manuel électronique compact, c'est-à-dire de petite dimension, d'actionner d'une seule main les touches individuelles du clavier, malgré la petite taille de l'appareil, en particulier, de préférence, avec le pouce de cette main, cela de façon simple.
