CHAPTER 4 Entering Information on Your Handheld
How can I enter information on my handheld?
• Graffiti ® 2 writing
• The onscreen keyboard
• Phone Lookup
• Note Pad
• Purchase and use an accessory keyboard (sold separately)
The most popular methods are using Graffiti 2 writing and the onscreen keyboard.
You can also enter information on your computer and move and manage the
information between your handheld and your computer. Or you can send and receive information
from other devices using beaming or your handheld’s built-in Bluetooth® wireless technology.
Entering information with Graffiti
®
2 writing
You can enter info directly on your handheld with Graffiti 2 writing. Graffiti 2 writing includes any
character you can type on a standard keyboard. Entering these characters on your handheld is
very similar to the way you naturally write letters, numbers, and symbols. But instead of using a
pen and paper, you use the stylus and the input area on your handheld. With only a few minutes of
practice, you can learn to use Graffiti 2 writing.
Writing in the Graffiti 2 input area
You can write Graffiti 2 characters in the input area, or you can turn on full-screen writing and
write anywhere on the screen.
In the input area, write lowercase letters, uppercase letters, and numbers in the sections shown. If
you write characters in the wrong area, they are not recognized correctly and an incorrect
character is written.
Tip
A blinking cursor on your
handheld screen
indicates where the
information you enter will
appear. Tap or use the
5-way to move the cursor
to the location you want.
In most cases, if you do
not see a blinking cursor,
you cannot enter
information on that
screen.
