1. Field of the Invention
The present general inventive concept relates to a portable information processing apparatus, and more particularly, to a portable information processing apparatus having an improved structure of an input unit and an output unit on a front panel.
2. Description of the Related Art
In general, a portable information processing apparatus is used in processing various information and provides convenience to a user in his/her daily life. As an example of the portable information processing apparatus, there are an MP3 player, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a cellular phone, an electronic frame and a portable multimedia player (PMP), etc. Hereinafter, an ultra mobile personal computer (UMPC) will be described as a small, portable and multifunctional computer, i.e., the portable information processing apparatus.
The UMPC is a data processor, and has functions of a notebook, a tablet personal computer, a navigator, a portable storage, a portable multimedia player (PMP), a personal digital assistant (PDA), a digital multimedia broadcasting (DMB) player, etc. Such an UMPC is lightweight, small-sized and portable, so that it is convenient for a user to transport. The UMPC allows a user to input and output information or the like in various environments.
Therefore, if an input unit is efficiently arranged in the UMPC, it will be convenient for a user to input and output information, data, etc.
