First Claim
1. A portable information communication terminal comprising:
- an operation unit composed of an integrated combination of a first operation detection device for detecting an operation in a first direction substantially parallel to a predetermined axis direction of a terminal housing and a second operation detection device for detecting an operation in a second direction substantially opposite to the first direction;
a display unit provided with a screen disposed in a direction substantially parallel to the predetermined axis direction and capable of displaying a hierarchical menu structure; and
a control unit for sequentially changing and displaying menu hierarchies in descending hierarchical order in the first direction on the screen of the display unit in accordance with an operation in the first direction detected by the first operation detection device, and for sequentially changing and displaying menu hierarchies in ascending hierarchical order in the second direction on the screen of the display unit in accordance with an operation in the second direction detected by the second operation detection device.
