Entering Characters Using T9 Text Input

T9 Text Input lets you enter text in your PCS Phone by pressing keys just once per letter. (To select the T9 Word mode when entering text, see "Selecting a Character Input Mode" on page 72.)

T9 Text Input analyzes the letters you enter using an intuitive word database and creates a suitable word. (The word may change as you type.) If the word you want does not display

after you have entered all the letters, press to scroll through additional word selections. To accept a word and

insert a space, press .

If you make a mistake, press to erase a single character.

Press and hold to delete an entire entry.

Entering Characters by Tapping the Keypad

To enter characters by tapping the keypad, select the Alpha mode (see “Selecting a Character Input Mode” on page 72). Press the corresponding key until the desired character appears. By default, the first letter of a word is capitalized and following letters are lowercase.
