Entering Text
Whether storing a name in the phonebook, creating
your personal greeting or scheduling events in your
calendar, you will need to enter text.

keystroke per letter. Each key on the keypad has
more than one letter – when you press the key
once, J, K or L may be displayed. The T9 mode
automatically compares your keystrokes with an
internal linguistic dictionary to determine the correct
word, thus requiring far fewer keystrokes than the
traditional ABC mode.
ABC mode
This mode allows you to enter letters by pressing the
key labelled with the required letter once, twice
three or four times until the letter is displayed.
Number mode
This mode allows you to enter numbers.
Symbolic mode
This mode allows you to enter special characters.
