Entering Text in the T9 Mode
T9 is a predictive text entry mode that lets you enter a word using a single keypress per letter.
Entering Common Words
To enter common words embedded in the T9 software:
1. Press a key indicating the first letter of the word you want to enter. A list of alternative words and
letter combinations will be displayed on the screen.
2. If the word you want is not displayed, continue by entering the second letter. The word choices are
updated with each keypress.
Entering New Words
You can add new words that are not recognized by T9.
1. To enter the first letter of a word, press the required key once.
2. Use the keypad to enter the rest of the word.
3. If the word you want to type is not present in the dictionary, press ADD WORD?.
4. Enter the word in the Add My Word box and press Done.
NOTE: Your HP iPAQ stores the unrecognized word and includes it in the list of alternative word
choices. When memory space for unrecognized words is filled, your HP iPAQ deletes oldest words
as it adds new words.
