Abstract: An electronic device comprising a touch screen, a plurality of first keys arranged along a periphery of the touch screen, a storage configured to stores a character array, and at least one controller configured to execute a character editing process according to an operation on the first key by allocating at least one of characters and phrases included in the character array to each of the first keys and accepting, when detecting the operation on one of the first keys, editing the at least one of the characters and the phrases allocated to the first key on which the operation is detected.

Abstract: An electronic device according to one embodiment includes a touch screen, a plurality of software keys that are aligned along an edge of the touch screen, a storage that stores address list data, a communication unit that establishes telephone communication, and a controller. If detecting an incoming phone call by the communication unit, the controller identifies a first group to which the incoming phone call belongs based on information relating to the incoming phone call and information of the address list data, and assigns the identified first group to the software key.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a housing, a touch screen arranged on the housing, a plurality of first software keys arranged along a first edge of the touch screen, a plurality of second software keys arranged along a second edge of the touch screen, a plurality of physical keys arranged along the first edge, and at least one controller. The at least one controller is configured to execute a process according to an operation on any one of the first software keys, the second software keys and the physical keys. The at least one controller is further configured to allocate characters “Q”, “W”, “E”, “R”, “T”, “Y”, “U”, “I”, “O” and “P” to the physical keys respectively, characters “A”, “S”, “D”, “F”, “G”, “H”, “J”, “K” and “L” to the first software keys respectively, and characters “Z”, “X”, “C”, “V”, “B”, “N” and “M” to the second software keys respectively.
