| 摘要 |
A terminal apparatus that selects, from among a plurality of communication modules, a communication module, which is useful to the user, without increasing current consumption and starts communication in a short time. In this apparatus, which includes a cellular communication module (210) for performing cellular communication and a WLAN communication module (220) for performing WLAN communication, the WLAN communication module (220) is activated by a user operation performed prior to the starting of communication, thereby preferentially performing the connection to a WLAN communication system. There is also included a mail size determining circuit (233) or an activated module selecting circuit (410) as a communication module selecting means for deciding, from the content of the user operation, to select one of the cellular communication module (210) and WLAN communication module (220) that has a useful communication format to the user. There is further included a communication control part (230) that controls the communication module in such a manner that activates only the communication module having the communication format selected by the communication module selecting means, thereby starting communication.
