Activation of one of at least two direction-related keys on a rotatable panel of a hand held device is detected, wherein the activation is based on user input for navigating a display of the handheld device. A rotation-based position of the rotatable panel is detected. A different direction is assigned to the direction-related key based on the rotation-based position of the rotatable panel.
