T9 Mode
This mode allows you to enter words
with only one keystroke per letter.
Each key on the keypad has more than
one letter. The T9 mode automatically
compares your keystrokes with
an internal linguistic dictionary to
determine the correct word, thus
requiring far fewer keystrokes than the
traditional ABC mode. You can set T9
input mode to On or Off by selecting
Right Soft Key Options, then 3 T9
Languages from the text message
window screen.

T9 Mode is set to Off by default.
ABC Mode
This mode allows you to enter letters

four times until the letter is displayed.
