Typing a message on a Windows Mobile-based Smartphone is made easy with several built-in responses including common salutations. Windows Mobile software also supports T9, a predictive text-input software that completes partially entered words with the most statistically probable word.

To send an SMS or MMS message, cycle to the appropriate screen, select New, then choose SMS or MMS by highlighting it and using the Action key.
Managing Contacts
Adding contacts: Contacts can be entered into a Windows Mobile based Smartphone in several ways: by keying information into the phone itself, by beaming infrared data from another device, by receiving the data as an e mail attachment, and most important, by synchronizing the Windows Mobile software with the user’s desktop Outlook using ActiveSync.
| The Contacts application was built to enable convenient, efficient communication. Within a Contacts record, every phone number, e-mail address, SMS address and URL is live, allowing users to dial a call or compose a message in one click. To make its use even easier, each contact can be assigned a default communication method, such as dialing the contact’s office phone number. This allows users to initiate communication directly from the Contacts list without having to open the record and select one of the communication options.
Communicate with contacts: Users can communicate with contacts without opening a contact card: If you are in contact view, like the ‘Hector, Clair’ shown at right, move the hardware joystick right or left and the letter to the right of the name will change from M (mobile number) to W (work number, or H (home number), allowing the user to press Send and call that number.
-
From the home screen, go into Contacts using the right soft key. Note that you can highlight any contact, and press the Send key to initiate the contact’s default communication method.
-
Using the joystick, select a contact, and press the Action key to open the record.
-
Highlight a work or home phone number, and then select Menu > Add Speed Dial.
-
Highlight Keypad Assignment, and press the Action key to see the list of speed-dial numbers and which contacts they’ve been assigned to. Select an available speed-dial number. Press Done, and then press Done again to return to the contact’s record.
