Entering Letters

You can use T9 Text Input when entering text for example text
messages and e-mail. The T9 Text Input method uses a built-in
dictionary to recognize the most commonly used word for every
sequence of key presses. This way, you press each key only once,
even if the letter you want is not the first letter on the key.

When you press the keys, different words are suggested. If the word
you want is not suggested, you can edit the word (

. The word

is then added to the dictionary so that it is suggested the next time.

In the following example, we will start writing a text message:
