Abstract
Disclosed is a mobile terminal capable of interworking a navigation function with a schedule management function. If a user previously registers schedule information including the origin, destination, appointment date/time and schedule alarm time, the mobile terminal will automatically generate an alarm when the schedule alarm time is reached on the date of appointment. Also, the mobile terminal displays an optimal route to the destination and time information to help the user to reach the destination at a desired time. To display the time information (for example, remaining time to reach the destination), the mobile terminal measures the traveling speed of the user and calculates the remaining time to reach the destination based on the measured traveling speed.
