Using T9®Text Input
Your i88s phone has embedded software called T9®Text Input that makes
typing on a phone keypad much like t yping on a computer keyboard — it
eliminates the traditional multi-tap method of text entry. As you type, you press
only one key per letter.T9 Text Input matches your keystrokes to words in its
linguistic database of approximately 60,000 words and proper names. You may
also store additional words you frequently use in your own user database,which
is incorporatedinto the T9 database.
T9 Text Input is available when you are typing information into your phone (for
example,in the Phonebook or Datebook) and while using Nextel Online
services.

Whenstoringa number,youcanprogramyour phone so that it will not only dial
a number but also pause before entering another series of numbers such as a
personal identificationnumber (PIN) or password. This feature is particularly

You can program your phone to enter all of the above information for you by
separating each entry with a pause. The stored data w ould look like this:
17035551234P#P1234. In this example,the first eleven digits represent the
number that must be dialed to access your voice mail. The P represents a 3
second pause.The # interrupts your greeting. The second P representsanother3
second pause. The last four digits represent your PIN.
To create a three-secondpause,follow the steps below:
Press and hold * for two seconds. The pause symbol (P) will appear
on the display screen.
NOTE:You can enter up to 20 characters in a single entry, storedor
dialed. You can program your phone to pause for more than 3
