Abstract

A mobile telephone with a display unit on which the orientation of displayed text, numerals or devices is switched automatically when different configurations of the telephone are selected. The orientation of the displayed text, numerals or devices encourages the user to direct the telephone to the position of optimum performance for the selected configuration. Changes of configuration by the deployment or the stowage of a satellite antenna causes inversion of displayed text.
