Dialing AlphaNuemeric Phone Numbers

Can anyone help me with dialing AlphaNumeric Phone Numbers on the Blackberry Key Pad? Ex 1-800-GO-FEDEX. Some businesses don't supply the actual phone number. Numbers and letters don't line up like on land line phones or standard cell phones.....HELP! :D

When in the Phone screen, hold down ALT and type the letters into the keyboard then hit Send and it will transpose the letters to the correct numbers.

You are awesome!!!!

yup .. but don't tell anyone :D

Azeis,

That didnt work for me I held ALT and pressed the keys and nothing showed up... HELP

Thanks a BUNCH!!! Cause I was stumped with this before!

Ms.Min, dial 1800, then hold alt and hit the rest of the keys needed.
Also, thanks azeis, this is cool.

...not that I ever dial numbers like that...

thanks everyone

Also had to install a plugin for my old Q. That is a pretty useful tip. Thanks for the info.
