Phone IME OS Design Development (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
The Phone IME is an input method editor (IME) that provides triple-tap functionality. Triple-tap refers to a method for entering text using a numeric keypad. When using this method, you press a given numeric key multiple times to cycle through the alphabetic characters associated with that number. For example, you might press the 2 key once to specify A, twice to specify B, and so on.
Note
Phone IME functionality is provided for use only from the IP Phone Suite. Its extension or use in other applications is not supported.
