Capitalizing Characters

CN3 Series Mobile Computer User's Manual for Windows Mobile 5.0
The large numeric keypads are for applications that require mainly
numeric data. These keypads also lets you enter special characters,
including the alphabet, by pressing color-coded key sequences. The
CN3e provides larger input keys better suited for blind entry or glove
usage.
Each keypad available for the CN3 provides color-coded keys to let
you access additional characters, symbols, and functions printed on
the keypad overlay. Once you understand how to use the color-coded
keys and key sequences, you can access all of the additional features
printed on the keypad overlay. There are two color-coded modifier
keys on the numeric keypad: the orange B key and the green C key.
The QWERTY and alphanumeric keypads have only the orange B
color-coded modifier key.
