A portable electronic apparatus (300) has a display (320) and a keypad (340) with a plurality of keys (342), the keys being distributed within a keypad area (341) in at least a first plane, and the keys being arranged for key-pressing user actuation transversally to the first plane so as to provide a first type of user input. The apparatus also has sensor means (430, 450, 348) positioned to sense navigating user actuation at the keypad area in or coincident with said first plane so as to provide a second type of user input, and a controller (301) configured to control a focus position (323) on the display (320) in response to user input of the second type. The controller (301) is configured to associate a plurality of display subareas (321) of the display with respective keys (342) of the keypad (340) and to accept, for user input of the second type, a key-pressing user actuation of an actuated key among said keys as a selection of a selectable item presented at the focus position (323) in a particular display subarea (321d) associated with the actuated key.
