A cellular phone (1) controls the display position of a pointing device cursor (11) to be displayed on a display (51A) in response to user's operation on a pointing device (41). At this time, when the cellular phone (1) determines that the display position of the cursor locates within a range of predetermined distance from the display position of the object based on a relative positional relationship between the display position of the cursor (11) and the display position of the object (202) selectable by a user, the cellular phone (1) notifies the user of the positional relationship by meansof vibration generation, sound output or light emission.
