CHAPTER 5 - ON-SCREEN KEYBOARD DATA ENTRY You can use the virtual on-screen keyboard, natural handwriting input or the optional PDA external folding keyboard for data entry. For more information about data entry using the external folding keyboard see Appendix. USING THE ON-SCREEN VIRTUAL KEYBOARD When entering the Edit mode of any application the virtual keyboard will automatically appear on the bottom of the touch-sensitive screen ready for instantaneous input. Tap the character keys to input each character.
CAP (caps lock), (shift key), INS (insert), (back space), Return symbol (return key) work the same as a PC keyboard. Touch the Int' key on the on-screen virtual keyboard to activate the international character keyboard. Touch the Int' key again to return to the normal character keyboard.
NATURAL HANDWRITING INPUT This PDA includes handwriting recognition. Tap the Pen key on the virtual keyboard to show the handwriting template.
The writing strokes are designed to closely resemble natural handwriting. Writing characters in the left area (ABC) will result in upper case (CAPITAL) letters. Using the same natural handwriting strokes on the right area (abc) will result in lower case letters. This means you do not have to learn separate ways to write upper and lower case letters.

UNDERSTANDING EMAIL Electronic mail is one of the fastest and most powerful ways to share information with people everywhere and to keep you informed. It has become one of the most widely used and practical aspects of the internet today. In order to connect your PDA or PC to the Internet you must make a connection to the Internet through an Internet Service Provider (ISP). [. . . ]
