Abstract

The folding communication terminal of the present invention is composed of a display device which is visible to the user when the folding communication terminal is in a folded state, and which is capable of multicolor display.
The user knows by glancing at the illumination color, without reading characters displayed on the display device and without straining their eyes, whether a caller's telephone number is notified or not. Furthermore, the display is illuminated in a color which is specified and registered in advance in correspondence with the caller's telephone number. The user is thus able to know at a glance who a call is from. Furthermore, the display device is illuminated in a color distinguishing between whether there is notification information which is yet to be displayed or not. The user can judge whether it is necessary to check notification information with a glance at the illumination color.
