Using the Keyboard
The nice thing about owning a tablet is you are not constrained to typing on a tiny thumb keyboard (as is the case
with phones). You can use the virtual keyboard that displays whenever you touch an area that requires input or
you can connect an external standard keyboard via Bluetooth. See Pairing a Bluetooth Device for details.
The virtual keyboard will not display when you have a Bluetooth keyboard connected. This gives more room on
the tablet screen as you type.
Keyboard Layout
The keyboard that is displayed is a basic layout with some different ways of doing things. For example; to type a
capital letter, tap the uppercase key . To capitalize more than one letter, double tap the key to change it to
uppercase. To go back to lowercase letters, tap the key again.
Tap to capitalize one letter,
Double-tap to turn on Caps Lock.
Tap once to turn off Caps Lock.
