Multitap text entry
When you press a key, a pre-edit box with the different
characters on that key is shown in the title area:
If the same key is pressed again, the next character in the
pre-edit box will be selected.
Note: To enter digits you can also press and hold the
corresponding key.
The key deletes the character to the left of the
cursor. If continuously pressed, the key deletes several
characters and then whole words.
Predictive text with the flip closed
The Predictive text method uses up to two language
dictionaries to recognize the most commonly used
words for each sequence of key presses. In addition,
word completion and next word prediction software is
used to complete or predict words without requiring
every letter to be entered. This way, you only need to
press each key once at the most, even if the letter you
want is not the first letter on the key.
The following example shows how to start writing text.

are writing, and is also highlighted in the suggestion
list.

accept the word. (The word tomorrow only
requires four key presses with the Predictive text
method.)

or down to view alternative word suggestions.
