Entering Characters by Tapping the Keypad
To enter characters by tapping the keypad:
1. Select the Abcmode (see “Selecting a Character Input
Mode”on page 30).
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 an entire entry.)
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:
