2.6 Using Phone Pad
Phone Pad provides a flexible, alternate method for entering
information. Using Phone Pad, you can easily switch between three
input modes: T9, Multi-Tap, and Numeric, including a list of symbols
for greater convenience.
To start Phone Pad
1. Start a program that accepts user input,
such as Word Mobile.
2. Tap the Input Selector arrow, then tap
Phone Pad.
Tip Phone Pad can be started at any time, except when your device is in
Camera mode or displaying the Today screen.
Use T9 input mode
By default, the device Phone Pad is in T9 mode. It is the easiest
and most convenient way to enter text in English because it has
the capability to enter text in alphanumeric format. As you tap
alphanumeric keys on the keypad, T9 tries to automatically match the
letters you have selected with the most likely completed word.
You can do the following by using the T9 input mode:
• To enter a word, tap the keys on the keypad.
• To insert a word in the current program screen:
1. Tap any word in the word list (directly above the keypad).
2. Tap .
3. Select a word, and tap to insert the word.
