Abstract
A handheld electronic device has two or more displays and sensors operative to indicate the handheld electronic device has been rotated, turned, or flipped so that a first display originally being viewed by a user is now facing away from a user. The processor changes displayed information of the newly displayed content on a second display based upon information displayed in the first display. When the handheld electronic device is returned to its original orientation, previously displayed content on the first display is restored or resumed, or is modified based on information entered in the second display just viewed.
