A data processing apparatus is described comprising: a body having a
surface defining a first plane, the body comprising a first group of
control elements and a second group of control elements for entering data
and performing control operations; a display having a display area
defining a second plane, the display coupled to the data processing
apparatus at a pivot point and rotatable around the pivot point from a
first position to a second position, wherein the display is viewable in
both the first position and the second position and wherein both the
first and second groups of control elements are exposed when the display
is in the second position, and wherein only the second group of control
elements are exposed when the display is in the first position, wherein
the first plane and the second plane are substantially parallel when the
display is in the first position, and wherein the first plane and the
second plane are not parallel when the display is in the second position.
