A portable, pocketbook-sized computer is provided with the features of a palmtop computer as well as video conferencing ability. A hinged design is provided so that the unit can fold shut. On one side, a computer unit is housed, including a full keyboard and a monitor, while the other side houses a mobile telephone unit, including a numeric keyboard and similarly sized monitor. The spine included a rotating camera. The units communicated so that the monitors can serve as video phone monitors, each showing one of the communicating parties. In a computer mode, both monitors can operate to display text on figures. Recessed character keys and raised operator keys enable rapid operation despite closely spaced keys. A ball-ended pen is provided for this purpose, sized to fall into one of the recesses at a time. Additionally, the pen is provided with wireless communication with the computer unit to silently alert the owner of incoming calls, or to use as a microphone. |
