three times.

on to the next place in the text entry field.

Using Word Mode
T9 Text Input software replaces conventional multi-tap text entry, enabling
users to compose text messages with only one key press per letter. Since each
key on a telephone keypad has more than one letter, pressing the number 5 could
represent
J
,
K
or
L
. T9 automatically compares users’ key presses to a linguistic
database to determine the correct word. For example, entering the word call into
1 From any screen that requires text input, press
q
to access the
Entry Method menu.
