PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR VIEWING ON A SUBSTANTIALLY PLANE SCREEN FROM A PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE LOCATING AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE. PDAs can be used to provide their users with various functions. One such function is the ability to contact users other than users who are stored on the PDA as contacts, for example by text message phone. The decision as to whether or not a particular user should be contacted can be influenced by that user's location. For example, if a contact is nearby, then the PDA user may be more likely to want to contact you. The present invention provides a PDA in which the location of one or more contacts may be displayed. In addition, the location of a particular contact can be shown on a map on the PDA screen by simply tilting the PDA at a predetermined angle around a horizontal axis. Thus, the map can be displayed in an intuitive and straightforward manner.
