  • Patent number: 7761815
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for utilizing a cellular terminal to simultaneously receive messages and process messages to be sent without the user having to change between display modes of the terminal. For instance, in response to a press of an alphanumeric key, a pop-up display is opened in a display area of the cellular terminal. The pop-up display covers a part of the terminal's display area and is used for composing/editing a user message suitable for forming part of a chat. The invention also relates to a cellular terminal utilizing the method and computer program products according to the invention.
