A folding mobile telephone having a dual- movement hinge. The hinge movably attaches one section of the mobile phone to another in such a way that there are at least two ways to access the various features of the mobile phone that are hidden from view in a closed position. The hinge includes a longitudinal pin having a first end that is disposed within a sleeve attached to the first enclosure section, and a second end that is disposed within a sleeve that is attached to the second enclosure section. As a result, the sections may be moved longitudinally with respect to each other for a portion of their length by sliding one or both sleeves away from the other along the pin. The sections may also be rotated about the pin to move the mobile telephone to an open position. In this way a user may selectively access all, or only a portion of the encloseable components and features of the mobile telephone. |
