Entering Text

eZi English Mode

This mode allows you to enter English words with only one key press
per letter. Each key on a keypad has more than one letter - a single
press on the 5 key could be J, K, or L. The eZi English mode
automatically compares your key presses to an internal linguistic
database to determine the correct word.
This mode requires far fewer keystrokes than the traditional multi-tap
method, the ABC mode.

ALPHABET Mode

When typing in the ABC mode, press the key labeled with a character:
- Once for the first character
- Twice for the second character and so on.
This method is called Multi-tap Typing.
For example, you press the 2 key three times quickly to display the
character "C", the 5 key two times quickly to display the character "K".
The cursor moves to the right when you press a different key. When
entering the same character twice or a different character on the same
key, just wait for a few seconds for the cursor to move to the right
automatically, and then select the next character.
