1. A hand-held device comprising:

  • an image viewing means having a memory for storing a plurality of image files and image index data mapped to the plurality of image files, wherein said image files and image index data are downloaded from a management server which communicates with said hand-held device and each of said plurality of image files contains an image of goods or thing seen in view of a given position on a sphere, the goods or thing being assumed to be located at a center of the sphere;

    a tilt sensor for producing data representing a posture of said hand-held device;

    a tilt angle conversion module for receiving said posture data from said tilt sensor and thus producing a tilt value of said hand-held device;

    a viewing position decision module for receiving said tilt value from said tilt angle conversion module, setting a reference tilt value of said hand-held device, producing a relative tilt value of said hand-held device with respect to said reference tilt value thereof and producing an image index data transformed from said relative tilt value;

    a controller for sensing the operation of said viewing position decision module and accessing said first memory to search an image index data identical with the image index data produced from said viewing position decision module and an image file mapped to said searched image index data; and
