Hand held mobile communications device with an image sensor, a printer and a print media slot

1. A handheld mobile image-sensing device comprising:

a support structure;

an image sensor positioned on the support structure for sensing an image;

a display positioned on the support structure and operatively connected to the image sensor for displaying the image sensed by the image sensor;

a pagewidth printer and processing circuitry to control operation of the printer positioned on the support structure and operatively connected to the image sensor to print the image sensed by the image sensor;

a slot formed in an outer surface of the device, the slot being configured to receive print media to be printed on by the printing mechanism; and

a mobile telephone system positioned on the support structure and operatively connected to the image sensor to transmit data representing the image,

wherein the printer includes a pagewidth printhead and an ink distribution unit that is positioned on the printhead to supply ink to the printhead.

2. An image-sensing device as claimed in claim 1 , in which the image sensor is in the form of a camera device capable of storing images on demand.

3. An image sensing device as claimed in claim 1 , which includes a print media feed mechanism for feeding print media relative to the printhead so that a printing operation can be carried out on the print media.

4. An image-sensing device as claimed in claim 1 , in which the display is a color, LCD display.
