T9® Text Entry

T9 word, T9 Text Input, enables you to easily enter text. T9
(for “text on 9 keys”) requires only one key press per letter
and quickly recognizes the most commonly used word of a
numeric sequence. For example, to enter the word “hello,”
you can spell out the word by pressing only five keys,
4-3-5-5-6.

T9 Text Input knows the most commonly used sequence for
that numeric sequence is “hello”. If two or more words
share the same numeric sequence, T9 software provides the
most commonly used word, with the ability to scroll to the
next most commonly used word by pressing

. Press

repeatedly to display all of the available words that T9

knows. When the word you want displays continue to enter
text in the same way or change to another text or character
entry mode. If the word you want to enter is not known by
T9 press

to change the Input Mode.

You can easily change the entry case of T9 by pressing

until the entry case that you want displays. The T9

text entry case options display as follows:

T9 WORD — All capital letters (all upper case).

T9 Word — Initial capital letters (first letter is upper
case).
