Abstract

Terminal mobile comprenant : un corps; un premier dispositif d'affichage qui est disposé au niveau d'une surface du corps, détecte une entrée tactile et affiche un écran; un second dispositif d'affichage qui est disposé au niveau de l'autre surface du corps, détecte une entrée tactile et affiche un écran; et une unité de commande qui commande le premier dispositif d'affichage et le second dispositif d'affichage sur la base de l'entrée tactile, l'unité de commande désactivant l'entrée tactile sur l'un du premier dispositif d'affichage et du second dispositif d'affichage tandis que l'entrée tactile sur l'autre dispositif d'affichage est activée. Lors de l'utilisation des dispositifs d'affichage au niveau de ses deux surfaces, le terminal mobile désactive une entrée tactile sur le dispositif d'affichage au niveau d'une de ses surfaces pendant l'utilisation du dispositif d'affichage au niveau de son autre surface, et peut ainsi empêcher une entrée tactile erronée non intentionnelle.
