9.1.1 How to write an SMS
There are two writing methods: Standard or Fast Text (Eatoni) method.
The standard method is the same method used to enter a name in the phonebook. The FAST TEXT methode is a
Letterwise predictive text method which means that the software will predict the next character to be typed. This method
requires less key press to form words/sentences than the standard method. When the FAST TEXT predicted letter is
not the character you want to type, you can use the ‘#’-key to select a other character.
For example: when you want to enter the name ‘LUC’
Standard method:
Tap 5 three times to select ‘L’
Tap 8 two times to select ‘U’
Tap 2 three times to select ‘C’
Total keystrokes required = 8
To enter a space press ‘1’
To go quickly to the next letter, either press downwards on the navigator key , or wait for the cursor to move on
automatically.
For each key, the available characters appears at the top of the screen.
Eatoni method:
To switch to Eatoni mode, press the “#”-key long. Eatoni or FastTXT appears on the display.
(To return to standard mode, pres the “#”-key long again)
Tap 5 once for ‘L’
Tap 8 and then ‘#’-key to select ‘U’
Top 2 once for ‘C’ (FAST TEXT method immediately predicts the letter ‘C’)
Total keystrokes required = 4
