Abstract:
A mobile communication terminal and method for processing missed events are disclosed. A user can check missed events on a wait screen at a glance and rapidly respond to the missed events. A controller stores the missed events received in a wait state. When the wait state is changed to an enabled state, an event displaying unit displays event icons associated with the missed events on key cells of a touch keypad. When an event icon is touched, a function executing unit executes a function associated with the touched event icon. A display changes from the wait screen to the function executing screen. Since the missed events are displayed as event icons on the touch keypad, a user can read a state of the missed events at a glance. As well, the user can read contents of the missed events that are associated with the event icon touched on the function executing screen, and rapidly respond to the missed events.
