  • Patent number: 8880338
    Abstract: A mobile phone includes: a first housing having a first display part; a second housing having a second display part; acquisition section for obtaining image data and position information associated with the image data; position information acquisition section for obtaining current position information concerning a current position; a guide information acquisition section for generating a guide map showing a route from the current position to a spot that is indicated by the position information associated with the image data, based on the position information associated with the image data and the current position information; and a display control section for controlling display contents in the first display part and the second display part. The display control section causes the first display part to display the guide map and causes the second display part to display an image based on the image data.

  • Patent number: 8024006
    Abstract: The present invention provides a mobile communication terminal having broadcast reception function, capable of preventing occurrence of a situation in which sound comes out due to the activation of a television function even though the phone's silent mode is set. When the phone's silent mode is set in a television watching state, a CPU 1 determines that it is a television silent mode. Similarly, also when an ON operation is performed on a television function activation key in a state where the phone's silent mode is set, the CPU 1 determines that it is the television silent mode. When the CPU 1 determines that it is the television silent mode, the CPU 1 mutes television sound.
