Text input

Input modes
Predictive text input mode
Predictive text input mode enables you to enter text more quickly than by using traditional text input mode. Instead of having to press keys multiple times to enter characters, you can enter text using only one keypress for each character. Predictive text input mode uses a large intelligent database to predict the word that you wish to enter. Prediction is based on the number and combination of your keypresses. If several words match the keypresses, you can select the required word from those listed by the prediction feature.
Your Vertu phone has three text input modes: Traditional (multipress) text input mode. Predictive text input mode (T9). Numeric input mode. Traditional text input mode and predictive text input mode are used for text entry. Numeric input mode is used for number entry. When you move the cursor into a field that requires you to enter text or numbers, an appropriate input method will be automatically selected.

Entering text

To enter text using predictive text input mode: 1. Press the key that represents the first character of the required text. The phone suggests the most probable character. The word that is being entered is underlined to indicate that it is active and may change as more characters are added. 2. Press the keys that represent the next characters of the word. The phone displays its prediction of the word. The prediction usually becomes more accurate as you enter more characters. To view alternative matches, press the -key. 3. When the required word is displayed, press the -key to confirm the word and enter a space. The underline is removed. You can then begin a new word. TIP: To enter a number without changing to numeric input mode, press and hold the key for the required number. TIP: To enter a compound word, enter the first part of the word, then scroll right to confirm it. Write the next part of the word, then confirm again. TIP: If ? is displayed at the end of the word, then it could not be matched with the predictive text database. You can add the word to the database by selecting Spell, entering the word using traditional text input mode, then selecting Save.

VERTU CREATES NEW VIBRANT LOOK WITH VERTU ASCENT RED, YELLOW AND BLUE - INSPIRED BY ITALY'S LUXURY CAR INDUSTRY London, England, 6 September, 2004: Vertu - the world's first and only manufacturer of handcrafted, luxury mobile phones - today unveils three exciting new variants: Vertu Ascent Red, Yellow and Blue. The design of high performance cars and the materials used in them inspire Vertu Ascent and the new additions reflect the classic colours of Ferrari (red), Lamborghini (yellow) and Bugatti (blue). Frank Nuovo, Creative Director at Vertu says: My intention with the Vertu Ascent was always to complement the sleek lines and soft leather found in high performance luxury cars. With the new colours I'm taking this a step further by introducing brightly coloured leather inspired by the vibrancy of the Italian car industry. The new Vertu Ascent Colours are the perfect accessory for anyone wishing to make a bolder statement without compromising on the quality and craft of a luxury product. The Vertu Ascent contrasts the feel of soft, hand-stitched leather with hard, precision-engineered Liquidmetal alloy - a new material selected for its robust and flexible structure and used on US Space Shuttle missions. The side of each phone features the leather that graces an Aston Martin and is dyed to recreate the colours of some of the world's fastest luxury cars. Matching coloured thread has been hand-stitched into the black leather at the back of the phone creating a similar effect to the contrast stitching found inside these cars. All Vertu phones are hand-crafted by experts in Vertu's workshop. The Vertu Ascent keypad alone contains over 150 different parts. Each key is manufactured by injecting a stainless steel mixture at high temperature and pressure into an oversize mould. As it cools, the key shrinks by 14% to produce the bevelled keypad design. The keys are then each set on two jewelled bearings, to create the unique pivoting action when each key is pressed. The Vertu Ascent is available from (please list local stockists) with a recommended retail price of 2,900*. *Recommended Retail Price in Germany Prices may change from country to country according to variations in tax and currency exchange rates For more information, please visit www.vertu.com
