(see “Selecting a Character Input Mode” on page 23). Press the
corresponding key repeatedly until the desired character appears.

press the right softkey for Options and select Alpha.

to enter "Bill", press twice , three times,

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.
