The receiver control unit  213  may capture a specific screen to store the specific screen in the second memory unit  216 . 
         [0067]    Hereinbefore, the functions of the components of the wireless mouse  220  and the signal receiver  210  according to the invention are described. Now, the operations of the multi-functional wireless mouse apparatus will be described. 
         [0068]    Firstly, in the case where the user views multimedia broadcast, the multimedia broadcast receiving unit  211  receives broadcast signals and decodes the image signal and the audio signal (acoustic signal) to output the signals to the receiver control unit  213 . The receiver control unit  213  transmits these signals through the interface unit  214  to the computer  230 , so that the user can view the multimedia broadcast. 
         [0069]    At this time, in the case where the user is to record the multimedia broadcast that the user currently views, the user moves the wireless mouse  220  to click the record button displayed on the screen. The broadcast that is currently displayed to the user can be stored in the computer  230  according to user&#39;s selection or in the second memory unit  216 . 
         [0070]    In addition, in order to speedily and easily record/capture the multimedia broadcast, the user designates the recording/capturing functions to the dedicated key  222 - 2  provided to the wireless mouse  220  in advance. If the dedicated key  222 - 2  designated to the recording/capturing functions is pushed, the key input signal is output to the mouse control unit  223 . The mouse control unit  223  transmits the key input signal through the first transceiving unit  221  to the signal receiver  210 . The receiver control unit  213  receives the key input signal, and after that, the receiver control unit  213  stores the broadcast signal in the computer  230  or in the second memory unit  216 . 
         [0071]    In addition, the user pushes previously-defined volume key, channel select key, and the like during the viewing of the digital multimedia broadcast so as to easily adjust a volume of the broadcast or to easily change channel. 
         [0072]    In addition, in the case where a speaker is not provided to the computer  230 , the receiver control unit  213  outputs the image signal input from the multimedia broadcast receiving unit  211  to the computer  230  so that the image signal can be displayed to the user. In addition, the receiver control unit  213  transmits the acoustic signal to the wireless mouse  220  so that the acoustic signal can be output through the speaker  402  that is embedded in the wireless mouse  220  or connected to the acoustic signal input/output unit  225 . 
         [0073]    In addition, the user may connect the mouse  403  and the keyboard  404  to the first extension unit  227  of the wireless mouse  220 . In this case, the mouse control unit  223  receives the input signal input through the first extension unit  227  from the mouse  403  and the keyboard  404  to transmit the input signal to the signal receiver  210 . The signal receiver  210  outputs the keyboard signal and the mouse signal input from the wireless mouse  220  to the computer  230 . In this case, according to the settings, the wireless mouse  220  and the mouse  403  connected to the first extension unit  227  can be simultaneously operated, or only the mouse  403  connected to the first extension unit  227  may be operated. 
         [0074]    In addition, in the case where the user is to listen to a music through a headphone, the user connects the headphone to the acoustic signal input/output unit  225 . The acoustic signal played in the computer  230  is transmitted through the signal receiver  210  to the wireless mouse  220 . The mouse control unit  223  outputs the acoustic signal received according to the I2S protocol to the acoustic signal input/output unit  225 . The acoustic signal input/output unit  225  converts the digital signal to the analog signal to output the analog signal to the headphone speaker  402 . 
         [0075]    In addition, in the case where the user records the audio signal by using the microphone  401 , the analog acoustic signal is input from the acoustic signal input/output unit  225  through the microphone  401  connected to the acoustic signal input/output unit  225 . The analog acoustic signal is converted to the digital acoustic signal. Next, the digital acoustic signal is output to the mouse control unit  223 . The mouse control unit  223  transmits the input digital acoustic signal to the signal receiver  210 . The signal receiver  210  stores the received acoustic signal in the second memory unit  216 . Alternatively, the signal receiving unit  210  outputs the received acoustic signal to the computer  230  to store the signal therein. 
         [0076]    In addition, in order to move the data stored in user&#39;s external memory device to the computer  230  or to move a moving picture/music file stored in the computer  230  to user&#39;s portable multimedia player (PMP), the user connects the external memory device or the PMP to the second extension unit  215 . The receiver control unit  213  outputs the moving picture/music file received from the computer  230  to the PMP connected to the second extension unit  215  and stores the file. In addition, the receiver control unit  213  may output the data read out from the external memory device to the computer  230  and store the file. 
         [0077]    As described above, the multi-functional wireless mouse apparatus according to the invention can be implemented so as to perform various functions of the USB hub, the external memory device, and the like so that the digital multimedia broadcast receiver and a plurality of the electronic apparatuses can be connected thereto.
