Input Methods; Entering Typed Text; Using The Qwerty Keyboard - BenQ P50 User Manual

Input methods

The PDA phone has a number of input method choices to choose from. When using the
phone function, simply use the QWERTY keyboard to enter the phone number then press
the Send key. When using an application that supports text input, you have the option of
using the QWERTY keyboard or choosing from a number of 'soft' input methods from
the Input Panel to enter typed text. The stylus is available as a point and click device for
navigation. Finally, you can use the stylus to handwrite or make drawings (for certain
applications that support this) and have the results saved as graphics. For example, in the
Notes application, you can literally scribble notes on the touchscreen and save it to a file.

Entering typed text

When you need to enter typed text into an application you can do so either with the
QWERTY keyboard or one of the input methods provided by the Input Panel. The Input
Panel is an icon on the menu bar when you open an application that supports text input.

Using the QWERTY keyboard

The QWERTY keyboard allows you to enter text conveniently - just type on it. You can
use the QWERTY keyboard anytime you need to type something. For example, use the
QWERTY keyboard to key in the phone number you wish to dial in the Phone applica-
tion. Or type in a long block of text into your Calendar or Pocket Word application. The
QWERTY keyboard makes text entry very convenient and is an efficient alternative to the
soft input methods as to be described below.
