Entering Text
Various text entry methods make it easy for you to enter names, 
numbers, and text messages on your phone.
You can enter all characters (letters, numbers, and symbols) 
using the standard tap method. Other text modes let you easily 
enter numbers and symbols, or insert text already stored on your 
phone. Finally, a predictive text mode lets you enter text 
messages with a minimum of keypresses.
