## Abstract

A transmission-reception device receives site screen data transmitted from an IP server. An SRAM records the site screen data received by the transmission-reception device. When in a reception standby state, the CPU reads the site screen data recorded in the SRAM, generates a site screen, and displays this on the liquid crystal display.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A mobile communication terminal that receives communications services from a mobile wireless network, comprising:
a communication control that selectively implements multiple communication functionalities comprising a voice communication functionality, an electronic message communication functionality and a network browsing functionality for browsing a second network located outside the mobile wireless network, wherein while implementing the multiple communication functionalities, at least one standby state is realizable in which no user action is prompted;
a viewer that activates the network browsing functionality to selectively access information provider servers located in the second network and receive one or more blocks of screen data from the accessed information provider servers for preview of the received one or more blocks of screen data by a user of the mobile communication terminal;
a registration control that upon a selection by the user of one block of screen data through the preview of the received one or more blocks of screen data, stores the selected one block of screen data in one of multiple memory areas each correlatable to any one of the at least one standby state;
a correlation control responsive to an instruction from the user to dynamically correlates the one of the multiple memory areas to one of the at least one standby state selected by the user; and
a display control that, when the terminal is in the selected one of the at least one standby state, displays the selected one of the one or more blocks of screen data.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein one of the at least one standby state is a standby state in which the terminal is waiting for a call to come in or for the user to key in.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein one of the at least one standby state is a state of downloading data from the data source.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein the display control keeps displaying screen data until an occurrence of an event triggers a shift from the standby state.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein one of the at least one standby state is a state of receiving an e-mail.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein different screen data is selectively displayed in a standby state.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 6, wherein different screen data is randomly displayed in a standby state.

### Claim 8 (depends on 6)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 6, wherein different screen data is displayed in a standby state in a periodic rotation.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein the second network is an Internet.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 9, wherein the one or more blocks of screen data are received from a web page on the Internet.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 1, the selected one of the one or more of the screen data is processed for display.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 11, wherein the size of the image represented by the selected one of the one or more of the screen data is adjusted.

### Claim 13 (depends on 11)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 11, wherein the image represented by the selected one of the one or more of the screen data is repeated.

### Claim 14 (depends on 11)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 11, wherein the image represented by the selected one of the one or more of the screen data is placed at a designated location on a display of the terminal.

### Claim 15 (depends on 1)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein the registration control determines, based on one or more attributes attached to the selected one of the one or more of the received screen data, whether the selected block of the received screen data is storable.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 15, wherein one of the attributes is a size of the selected block of the received screen data.

### Claim 17 (depends on 15)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 15, wherein one of the attributes is copyright protection.

### Claim 18 (depends on 15)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 15, wherein one of the attributes is identification of a network through which the screen data was received.

### Claim 19 (depends on 15)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 15, wherein one of the attributes is an encryption method with which the screen data is encrypted.

### Claim 20 (depends on 15)

A mobile communication terminal according to claim 15, wherein one of the attributes is a communication protocol adopted in the network.
