1. A method of wirelessly communicating with a mobile terminal having first and second portions and having a touch screen, comprising:
- detecting a touch input on an icon or menu displayed on the touch screen;
performing a predetermined pre-command operation in response to the first touch;
detecting a position of a first portion of the mobile terminal relative to a second portion of the mobile terminal, the first and second portions being configured to slide relative to each other; and
cancelling the predetermined pre-command operation if the step of detecting detects that the first and second portions have slid into a closed position while the pre-command operation is being performed.

Abstract
Disclosed is a touch recognition method for preventing an execution of a function associated with an icon by unintentionally touching the icon when a slide-type mobile terminal performs a sliding motion and a mobile terminal implementing such method. If a pre-command is inputted by a touch through the touch screen of the mobile terminal, a pre-command operation that is predetermined is performed. If a sliding motion is detected while the pre-command is performed, the pre-command operation is cancelled.
