Abstract: At a mobile terminal apparatus provided with a non-contact IC, flexible communication is carried out between the external reader/writer , non-contact IC and the internal application manager controller, and a program designated in the form of a push from the external reader/writer is activated and executed in a smooth manner at the mobile terminal apparatus. Normally, the non-contact IC cannot communicate with the application manager controller during communication with the external reader/writer, and cannot communicate with the external reader/writer during communication with the application manager controller. A specific command is transmitted from the external reader/writer together with information specifying a prescribed application during communication between the external reader/writer and the non-contact IC. When the specific command is received, the non-contact IC shifts to a communication state enabling communication with the application manager controller.

The operation control device can control a driving force in response to the weight shift of a rider in addition to the operation of the throttle grip.

Abstract: When data received separately in first and second reception processing is processed separately by first and second application programs, and when data received by the first reception processing contains specific data specifying processing by the second application program, and the specific data has regional properties, the current region where the second application program is executed is judged, and if the region does not match a region to which processing specified by the specific data belongs, the content specified by the specific data is converted based on data in a predetermined table, and processing is executed by the second application program. Accordingly, two application programs can be linked in a mobile phone unit or other terminal devices, and problems when executing one application with regional properties under control of the other application can be resolved.

Abstract: A porous impregnation material (14) impregnated with a gaseous-phase lubricant that vaporizes at an atmosphere temperature within an outer case (2) is disposed in the inside of the outer case (2) that incorporates a tape mechanism (1) having a magnetic head such as a rotary video head (5). This allows the magnetic head to be in a state of being protected by a coating film of the gaseous-phase lubricant, thereby eliminating the adhesion of foreign substances other than the gaseous-phase lubricant to the magnetic head. As a result, decrease in the reading precision of magnetic data to be caused by the foreign substances can be prevented.
