Writing and editing a text message

The following rules apply when writing a text message:
Control the cursor with qr / qr.
◆
Characters are added to the left of the cursor.
◆
Press the star key * to display the table of special characters.
◆
The first letter of the name of directory entries is automatically capitalised, followed
◆
by lower case letters.
Writing text messages/names (without predictive text)
When you press a key and hold it, the characters from that key appear in the bottom dis-
play line and are highlighted one after the other. When you release the key the high-
lighted character is inserted into the input field.
You can see in the display whether upper case, lower case or digits are selected:
"A" or "a" appears on the bottom display line when you make an entry in
◆
the directory.
"'Abc"', "abc" or "123"' appears at the bottom right of the screen when writing an
◆
SMS.
Writing text messages (with predictive text)
EATONI predictive text helps you when you are writing text messages.
Each key between Q and O is assigned several letters and characters. These appear in a
selection line immediately below the text panel (above the display keys) as soon as you
press a key. The letter you are most likely to be looking for is shown in reversed high-
lights and is at the beginning of the selection line. It is copied into the text panel.

you want, briefly press the hash key # repeatedly until the required letter is reverse-

If you press and hold the hash key #, you switch from "Abc" to "123" and from "123"
to "abc" and from "abc" to "Abc".
