Entering letters and characters
You can enter letters, for example, when you add names to the phonebook, write text messages or enter web addresses.
In addition to the way you normally enter letters in your phone, using multitap text input, you can use T9™ Text Input to enter text messages and email, for example, if the input language you select supports this. T9 Text Input is a predictive input method and is a quicker way to write texts.
