<p>A portable communications device comprises a body with a display, a speaker, a camera and lens, a keypad, and a display cover that is slidably connected to the body. The display cover is movable over the display between at least two positions. When the cover is in one of these positions, the camera is activated and the display operates as a viewfinder for the camera. The sliding cover permits the optimisation of the display size for use as a viewfinder. Moreover, the position of the sliding cover relative to the body of the device may be used as a selector to determine the operating mode. There is thus no need to navigate a menu using a keyboad prior to photographing. Rather the function of the device may be automatically selected by sliding the cover to obscure a greater or lesser area of the display.</p> |
