Patent ID: 8478351

Claim:
A mobile terminal, comprising: a housing; a cover layer comprising an optically opaque region shaped to define a first display region and a second display region; a single window comprising an optically transmissive material positioned over the cover layer, wherein the single window comprises a first region that generally corresponds to the first display region of the cover layer and a second region that generally corresponds to the second display region of the cover layer, wherein the first and second regions of the single window are structured to permit information to be provided to a user during an operation, wherein the first region and the second region of the single window are coplanar with each other, and wherein each of the first and second regions of the single window is defined as a touch sensitive region; a touch sensing layer being in contact with the cover layer, the touch sensing layer is structured to receive touch input responsive to user contact at the single window, wherein at least part of the touch sensing layer comprises an optically transmissive material, and wherein the cover layer, the single window, and the touch sensing layer are located in respective planes which are parallel; and a controller located in the housing and structured to operate in cooperation with the touch input received via the touch sensing layer.
