Predictive text mode
To write messages quickly, use predictive text mode with your keypad and the
built-in dictionary. Predictive text mode is much faster than the standard mode
method because you do not need to scroll through the letters on each key to spell
a word. The dictionary determines which word to enter based on the keys
selected.
