Keys
You can enter characters into your phone using the on-screen
portrait or landscape keyboard. In both formats, the keys are
associated with alphabetic letters, special characters, or numbers,
as shown in the following layouts.
From a screen where you can enter text, for example the New
Message screen, hold your phone in an upright position to display
the portrait version of the on-screen QWERTY keyboard.
Rotate your phone counterclockwise to display the landscape
version of the on-screen keyboard.
Based on the default keyboard settings, the first letter of an entry
is capitalized and all consecutive letters are lowercase unless you
touch the Shift key ( ) or enter a period. After entering a
character, the cursor automatically advances to the next space.

keyboard is displayed when you touch the
