With the QWERTY keyboard, you can type letters,
numbers, punctuation, and other special characters
into text entry fields or other applications as easily as
with your computer.
To open the device and access the keyboard:
1. Rotate the device 90 degrees counter-clockwise.
2. Slide the top section of the device up to open, as
shown in the illustration. When you slide the device
open, the display rotates from a vertical viewing
mode (Portrait) to a horizontal viewing mode
(Landscape).
Using the Keyboard
In this section we’ll cover the steps necessary to enter
text using the QWERTY keyboard. Using your device's
QWERTY keyboard is just like using any standard
computer keyboard.
The following keys perform special functions when
entering text:
FN: Allows you to use alternate characters
displayed at the top of the QWERTY keys.
Examples: $, @, #, !
Shift: Changes the text input mode
among Upper/Lower/Mixed case mode.
SYM: Launches the Symbols page. Scroll
down and tap an entry from the extensive
list of emoticons.
Space: Inserts an empty space.
OK/Enter: Selects or accepts a currently
highlighted option.
