Abstract: A communication terminal having one or more one-touch-dial buttons simplifies operations needed for registration of destination data such as phone numbers or mail addresses. A communication terminal (e.g., a cellular phone) having one or more one-touch-dial buttons includes a destination-data registration unit (e.g., a phone-directory database) that allows destination data such as phone numbers or mail addresses to be registered therein, a one-touch-dial registration unit that allows destination data to be registered therein so as to be associated with the one or more one-touch-dial buttons, and a control unit that, in response to an operation of the one or more one-touch-dial buttons, determines whether destination data has been registered in the one-touch-dial registration unit or the destination-data registration unit, and that outputs a result of the determination and a query message regarding registration of the destination data.

Abstract: An electronic device can perform photographing by an AF (Auto-Focusing) function and a PF (Pan-Focus) function, and can give improvement of quickness of the taking of an image by automatically selecting an image, which is taken into the device, from a relation between the AF function and a shutter operation. The electronic device has an imaging part which catches an image obtained through an optical system, and also has a focusing mechanism which moves the optical system to an auto-focusing position or a fixed focus position. The electronic device further comprises a switch and a control part. The switch functions as a focusing switch ordering the focusing mechanism a focusing action, and also functions as a shutter switch ordering taking of an image caught by the imaging part. By this, the switch orders the focusing action or the taking of the caught image.

Abstract: According to an aspect of the embodiment, a cellular phone displays an e-mail creation screen, and when a one-touch key included in the cellular phone is pressed, an e-mail destination corresponding to the one-touch key is acquired from a one-touch key DB, and set to the e-mail. When a numeric key is pressed, the cellular phone acquires an e-mail text corresponding to the numeric key from an example sentence DB, and sets the text to the e-mail to transmit the e-mail to the e-mail destination.

Abstract: The present invention relates to registration of read out information corresponding to written information and is intended to improve operationality of the registration or deletion of the written information and the read out information. The present invention relates to a read out information registration apparatus (e.g., cellular phone) that registers the read out information corresponding to the written information, and the registration (or deletion) of the read out information is performed in conjunction with the registration (or deletion) of the written information such as telephone directory information of a name of an opposite party, etc., a word used in e-mail, etc., and address descriptions to centralize the operation and process. A user is constrained from performing processes such as edition and deletion of the registration contents of the read out information, and the written information and the read out information are managed in a centralized manner.

Abstract: A privacy protection method for a terminal subscriber and a terminal and program for implementing the same are provided, wherein at least either a picture or voice associated with at least either an individual or an organization registered in an address book is preregistered in a terminal equipped with a function that enables the terminal to be switched between a privacy mode and a non-privacy mode, and wherein when a call arrives at the terminal in the privacy mode, processing is performed at least either to display an image or to reproduce voice with which a caller cannot be identified, instead of displaying the picture or reproducing the voice registered in the address book, while when a call arrives at the terminal in the non-privacy mode, processing is performed at least either to display the picture or to reproduce the voice registered in the address book, thereby preventing the pictures, etc.
