For input devices of mobile apparatuses placing more importance on the portability and mobile apparatuses placing more importance on display unit such as displays, it is possible to provide an input device and an input method which can easily be operated by a user even if an input unit in the apparatuses is small. The input device includes: an input unit formed by first vibration detection units which detect vibration transmitted via a body of a user holding the input device when a part of the user's body is brought into contact, and a second vibration detection unit; and an input information identification module which calculates a detection time difference between the moment when the vibration is directed by the first vibration detection units and the moment when the vibration is directed by the second vibration detection unit and outputs a code signal corresponding to the time difference. |
