Abstract
A sub-notebook computer is combined with an integrated wireless telephone. The overall size including the telephone is only two-thirds the size of a conventional notebook computer. This device seamlessly combines the function of a laptop computer with the function of a cellular phone. By integrating the telephone and the computer, the user can transfer wireless data much more easily. No cables or synchronization is required. The user has the benefit of using the larger display and keyboard of the computer instead of the miniature display and keyboard of the telephone. These features greatly expand the capability of the telephone in retrieving and accessing wireless data through the Internet.
