1. An electronic apparatus which is foldable, comprising:
- a recording unit which contains recorded data;
a first equipment unit;
a second equipment unit which does not cover the first equipment unit completely when the electronic apparatus is folded;
a display unit which is installed on at least one of the first equipment unit and the second equipment unit and displays the recorded data;
a folding unit which foldably couples the first equipment unit and the second equipment unit with the display unit facing inward;
an index unit which is installed on an end of the first equipment unit or the second equipment unit, is exposed from the first equipment unit or the second equipment unit when the electronic apparatus is folded, and displays index tabs of the recorded data;
a sensor device which senses an index tab specified by a user out of the displayed index tabs when the electronic apparatus remains folded;
a extraction device which extracts data corresponding to the sensed index tab out of the recorded data; and
a display device which displays the extracted data on the display unit when the electronic apparatus is unfolded.

Abstract
In the electronic apparatus according to the present invention, two display units differ in size are coupled so that an edge part of one of the display units is exposed from the other display unit when the electronic apparatus is folded. An index unit is installed on the edge part and displays index tabs of data recorded in the electronic apparatus. When a user opens the folded electronic apparatus while pressing one of the index tabs, data corresponding to the designated index are extracted from the recorded data and are displayed on the display units.
