Snip:

Keyboard

The keyboard is actually very impressive. HTC has gone with square keys, largely because the space doesn't allow for the taller oval shaped keys like the Q uses.

HTC has even built in some fantastic logic that -- now that I've seen it -- makes me surprised others haven't done, too. One of the big hassles when working with a limited keyboard is accessing the special characters like punctuation. On this model, when you hold down a letter key, you'll get the alternate option. So if I'm typing an email and hold down the "H" key for a second, instead of an "h", I get a "?".


Am I going nuts? I don't have this feature on my phone. Maybe, it only applies to DASH? But from the pictures in the article I can't tell. Looks like a pre-pro unit, but again- it has blue F keys instead of green on preproduction unit.

Anyone?

5. Input the Alternate Symbol/Letter Easily

If you want the !, press and hold the M key until it shows up.
If you want the ?, press and hold the H key until it shows up.
and so on...This works with any of the keys.

NOTE: This only works on the T-Mo Branded Dash! Does not work on the HTC S620
