Shortcut Tips for Your BlackBerry

What to insert..	How to
A period	Rather than pressing ALT+M, press the SPACE key two times in succession. Not only will your BlackBerry insert a period but it will also capitalize the next letter you type.
A capital letter	Normally you would press the CAP key along with the letter you want to capitalize. With BlackBerry, you can simply press and hold the letter you want to capitalize.
A special character	Press and hold any key while scrolling the trackwheel up or down. You will see a rotating list of characters mapped to that key appear on the screen. Select the character you want by scrolling the trackwheel.
An @ symbol	In any field designed to accept an e-mail address (such as the e-mail field in an Address Book entry), simply type a space for BlackBerry to automatically insert an @ character. This trick works for the period used in e-mail addresses as well.
