A pressure sensitive electronic device has a display, a case, a processor, and a pressure sensor, such as one or more force sensitive resistors. When the pressure sensor detects pressure on the case, the information displayed on the display is changed. Pressure in one or more dimensions (X, Y, and/or Z) on the case is detected by the pressure sensor. Most commonly, the information that is changed on the display is the repositioning of a cursor on the display, although switching between various operating modes and/or writing on the device can also be performed. The cursor is repositioned corresponding to the direction and magnitude of the pressure detected on the case. Pressure can also be used to execute an operation corresponding to the position of the cursor on the display. Keys or other input devices (mouse, trackball, etc) are not required to control the movement of the cursor on the display, execute operations, or switch between various operating modes of the device.
