You can use either the on-screen keyboard with the QWERTY Keyboard retracted, or slide the QWERTY Keyboard out and use it to enter your input. While the QWERTY Keyboard is open, you can use both touchscreen input and QWERTY Keyboard input. The touchscreen remains in landscape view while the QWERTY Keyboard is open.
The Back Key , the Home Key , and the Menu Key are touch keys on the front of the device which are tapped to activate. These same keys are included on the slide-out QWERTY Keyboard which are pressed to activate. In the user guide text that follows, when using these keys you will see “Tap (or press)” to indicate that either one can be used.
