Entering Text on Your Phone
When you want to enter text into your phone (for example, a name 
in the phonebook), use the twelve-key dial pad to enter the letters 
printed on the number keys. Here's how it works:
 

The phone enters the letters in the order they appear on the key. 
For example, if you press the number key 
2
 once, the phone 
enters the letter A. Press 
2
 twice for B, and three times for C
 

If you press the key again after the last letter, the phone starts the 
same letter sequence with small letters. If you press 
2
 four times 
in a row, the phone enters a (small letter). Press 
2
 five times for b
and six times for c.
 

If you see the icon [Aa] in the display, the phone enters capital 
letters first (A B C), then small letters (a b c), then the number on 
the key (2). The icon [aA] means the phone starts at the small 
letters, so it enters small letters first, then the number on the key, 
then capital letters.
 

The phone automatically uses a capital letter for the first letter and 
any letter right after a space; all other times, it uses small letters.
 

If two letters in a row use the same number key, enter the first 
letter, then use 
CALLER ID/RIGHT
 to move the cursor to the next 
position to enter the second letter.
