LetterWise character table (for English)
LetterWise is a simplified text entry system which suggests the most likely letter to follow the
previously entered text. Text can be input faster because the number of key presses are
reduced. You can change which language is used for LetterWise character entry (page 31).

Each time you press a dial key, LetterWise will suggest a character. If the suggested
character is incorrect, press
{

repeatedly to display the desired character.
