Entering Text Using the QWERTY Keyboard

Your phone has a full, slide-out QWERTY keyboard. The keyboard
is located beneath the display screen and is accessed by sliding
it open. This orients the phone's display to Landscape
(widescreen) mode. With the QWERTY keyboard, you can type
letters, numbers, punctuation, and other special characters into
text entry fields or other applications as easily as on your
computer.

To open the device and access the keyboard:

1.

Rotate the phone 90 degrees counter-clockwise.

2.

Slide the top section of the phone up to open, as shown in

the illustration. When you slide it open, the display rotates

to a horizontal viewing mode (Landscape).
