<p>An information processing apparatus and method, and a program capable of accurately recognizing an electronic device connected. Among the four sides of an input display unit (2), in the vicinity of the left longitudinal side (2-1), a reader/writer (33-1) is provided. A cellular telephone (11) has a built-in RF tag. When the cellular telephone (11) is placed in the vicinity of the reader/writer (33-1), the reader/writer (33-1) detects the RF tag and detects that the cellular telephone (11) is placed in the vicinity. In the input display unit (2), an icon (111) of the cellular telephone (11) is movably displayed so that it gradually appears from the side (2-1) and entirely appears at last. The present invention can be applied to an information processing apparatus such as a personal computer, PDA, and a cellular telephone.</p> |
