Abstract: A wedge-shaped digital clock wirelessly receives weather, traffic, and other information over the Internet for display along with the time of day. The clock is wedge-shaped so that it can rest in two orientations, one with the display tilted back slightly from vertical and one with the display substantially horizontal. An accelerometer can signal the orientation to an internal processor, which can flip the text on the display as appropriate for the user flipping or turning the housing upside down, for example.

Abstract: A clamshell-type mobile terminal for a wireless communication system includes a lower casing and an upper casing. The lower casing includes a keypad with input keys. The upper casing includes a display. The lower casing and the upper casing are connected by a hinge mechanism connecting the lower casing and the upper casing so that the lower casing and the upper casing can be folded onto each other. The lower casing is the casing part, which during operating the mobile terminal is in the palm of the hand of the user, whereby the upper casing is extending away from the hand of the user in an opened state of the mobile terminal and folded onto the lower casing in a closed state of the mobile terminal. The hinge mechanism is located and arranged so that in the opened state, the lower casing lies above the upper casing enabling an easy access to input keys located close to the hinge on the lower casing.
