Text Input Mode
The Text Mode option allows you to choose T9, ABC, or Numeric
mode.
• T9 Mode: allows you to enter words with fewer keystrokes. The T9
mode automatically compares the series of keystrokes you make with
an internal linguistic dictionary to determine the most likely word, thus
requiring fewer keystrokes than the traditional ABC mode.
• ABC Mode: allows you to enter alphabetic characters by pressing the
key labeled with the corresponding letter.
• Numeric Mode: allows you to enter numbers.
• Symbols Mode: allows you to enter symbols, such as punctuation
marks.
