About typing using different keyboard styles
When you need to type, your BlackBerry® device displays one of three keyboard styles automatically, based on the field that you type in and
the orientation of your device.
If you are using your device in portrait view, you can switch between the SureType® keyboard, multi-tap keyboard, and full keyboard, and you
can set one of these keyboard styles to be your default. If you are using your device in landscape view, you can type using the full keyboard.
