  • Publication number: 20130021256
    Abstract: A mobile terminal with touch panel function includes: a display section, a touch panel section, and a controller. The touch panel section identifies a location on the screen of the display section that a user has touched. The controller identifies a touched key by collating the location identified by the touch panel section and a location of each key of the keyboard displayed on the screen of the display section, the controller controls a display state of the keys of the keyboard displayed on the screen of the display section in such a manner as to make the display state of keys having a low probability of being touched by the user and the display state of keys having a high probability of being touched by the user differ from each other.

  • Patent number: 8345658
    Abstract: The present invention is to provide a mobile communication terminal with a GPS function capable of further varying the positioning performance of each positioning mode preinstalled in the terminal. A GPS positioning section of the mobile communication terminal with the GPS function can perform positioning in a plurality of positioning modes using the A-GPS system. When a GPS control section of the mobile communication terminal with the GPS function causes the GPS positioning section to perform positioning, the GPS control section sets a positioning mode in the GPS positioning section, varies an allowable error of a communication synchronizing clock established between the terminal and a base station as a parameter relating to the positioning performance of GPS positioning based on the A-GPS system in which a fixed value has been conventionally used, and sets the allowable error in GPS positioning means.
