摘要

An apparatus for use in a data processing device is described in which an audio system and a light system is embedded within a cursor control device such as a directional pad. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises a cursor control device for performing one or more defined cursor control functions; an audio system embedded within the cursor control device, the audio system configured to generate audio signals responsive to audio signals received and/or generated by the data processing device; and a light source embedded within the cursor control device, the light sources configured to generate light from the cursor control device responsive to control signals generated by the data processing device.
