The alphanumeric keypad is used to enter both numbers and letters. When alphanu-
meric text entry is expected, the nonnumerical options are presented before the nu-
meric value of the key. For example, the number “2” key provides for entry of “A”,
“B”, and “C”. When the cursor is positioned in a display field location that expects an
alphanumeric character, the first press of the “2” key will result in the display of an
“A”. Another press (in less than one second) will cause a “B” to be displayed. The
next press shows a “C”, while the forth press shows a “2”.
