Abstract

The invention relates to a portable communication terminal (1) comprising a base part (5), a display screen (6) located on the base part (5) and a movable part (7), comprising a keypad (8) for a first set of functions of the portable communication terminal (1). The movable part (7) is connected to the base part (5) and is adapted to undergo a movement in relation to the latter, at which the movement is limited between a closed position and an open position. The movable part (7) is adapted, at the closed position, to cover at least a part of the display screen (6), which is touch sensitive for a second set of functions of the portable communication terminal (1). The movement that the movable part (7) is adapted to undergo is a sliding movement within a plane being essentially parallel to the display screen (6). The movable part (7) is adapted so that, as it is moved towards the open position, the area of the display screen (6) covered by the movable part (7) decreases.
