Default Phone keyboard is changed

I have the pearl 3G and the keyboard layout changed without my consent!

I woke up sunday and my phone thinks it's an old style phone. the 2/TY button is now the letters abc, 3/UI button is now the letters d e f , 4/DF button is now g h i, 5/GH is now j k l and so on...... the alt key is now the delete button the symbol key still works and enter button works as well. The QW, AS, ZX, OP, L and delete button are all non responsive. I can switch from multitap to suretype without problems but how did I change my keyboard layout to this???? HELP please!

I was hoping to avoid re installing the OS it seems too complicated....

How would I go about doing a hard reset?
