7. A reconfigurable screen device, comprising:
-
a housing, having at least first and second positions;
a display, attached to said housing;
a first sensor, located at said first position;
a second sensor located at said second position;
a processor, executing a stored program to determine if said first sensor is being touched by a user and to orient said display of the display information in first direction if so, and to determine if the second sensor is being touched by a user and orienting the display in a second direction, different than said first direction, if so. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)
