Entering characters via the keypad
If you chose to use the keypad when entering text and
other characters, the keypad functions in 2 modes:
alpha mode and numeric mode. A status indicator in
the upper left corner indicates what mode you are in.

Alpha mode has 4 sub-modes: ABC (upper case) and abc (lower case),
title case, and sentence case (both indicated by Abc). Numeric mode is
indicated by 123 in the upper left corner of the display.
