Entering Characters by Tapping the Keypad
To enter characters by tapping the keypad:
1.
Select the Alphabet mode. (See “Selecting a Character
Input Mode”on page 43.)
2.
Press the corresponding keys repeatedly until the desired
letter appears (for example, to enter the word “Bill,”
press
twice,
three times,
three times,
and
three times again). (If you make a mistake,
press
to erase a single character. Press and hold
to
delete word by word.)
By default, the first letter of an entry is capitalized and the
following letters are lowercase. After a character is entered,
the cursor automatically advances to the next space after two
seconds or when you enter a character on a different key.
Characters scroll in the following order:
