    Abstract: A portable communication device has a first display (132, fig.1) disposed on the front surface of the housing and a second display 130 upon the top of the housing. The display on the top of the housing enables the user to see information as to who is calling even when the phone is carried on a belt or in a holster. The housing 105 may have a moveable portion or flap 114 whereby the first display is covered when the flap is closed. The first display may alternatively be mounted upon the inside surface of the flap (figure 3) rather than on the front of the mobile telephone. Alternatively one display may be mounted on the front of the radiotelephone, the other upon the flap (see figure 9). Controller circuitry (see fig.s 5-7) controls the display areas to display identification information including identification information of the caller on the second display area. Text information may be displayed on the first display area.
