The two scroll buttons allow you to scroll through lists, data

The main screen used to display information and enter data.
Be sure to use only a recommended plastic-tipped stylus when
writing on this screen.

Writing Pad /
Keypad
The writing pad allows you to use the handwritten Graffiti
character set to enter data. Use the left side of the writing pad
to enter alphabetic characters and the right for numeric
characters. Writing Graffiti characters is very similar to
writing normal characters but actually requires fewer strokes.
See Appendix B for a complete set of the Graffiti characters.
To view Graffiti templates touch the very bottom of the
display and drag the stylus to the top of the display.
You can also enter data using a pop-up a keypad. To activate
a keypad touch the “abc” or “123” buttons on the bottom
corners of the writing pad. Keypads make it very easy to
enter special characters.
