Dial letter

Did you know you can dial letters on your BB, something like 1-800-HOME-DEP

"Dial Letters in Phone Numbers—(800) LET-TERS
Have you started to dial a number that consists of letters on your BlackBerry? It won't be long before you realize that you have no idea what numbers those letters translate into on a traditional dial pad so that you can place the call on your BlackBerry. Your handheld goes into number-lock mode on the Phone screen, and letters do not appear when they are entered in this mode. Don't worry, there's still an easy way to accomplish this!

To dial letters in a phone number, you have two options:

1. To type one letter, press the Alt key. Press the letter key.

1. To type multiple letters, press the Right Shift key and the Alt key. Your handheld enters character mode and you can type the entire sequence of letters without having to hold down Alt. Press the Right Shift key again to turn off character mode.
