20090160776HAND-HELD ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A hand-held electronic device being held by a user with a single hand for dialing or with both hands for inputting characters includes a body, a keyboard, two sensors respectively disposed on two opposite sides of the body, and a backlight source. The keyboard has keys forming a region marked with a QWERTY keyboard and a region overlapping the above region and marked with a phone keypad. The sensors detect whether the body is held by a single hand on one side or by both hands on two sides and let the backlight source light up the region marked with the phone keypad on the keyboard when the body is held by a single hand. Thus, the region marked with the phone keypad is highlighted out of the QWERTY keyboard, so it is easy for the user to identify the key numbers and dial quickly.06-25-2009
