Abstract
An information communication terminal device having a first display/operation part and a second display/operation part mounted on an upper and a lower case, respectively. A housing member accommodates a video camera therein, and a support mechanism rotatably supports the first display/operation part, the second display/operation part and the housing member on the same rotation axis with respect to each other. The first and second display/operation parts are rotatably mounted by at least 180 degrees about the housing member and are structured so as to be opposed to each other when the information communication terminal device is in an opened condition and to be overlapped with respect to each other when the information communication terminal device is in a closed condition.
