摘要：PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide simple operability while contracting and reducing operation keys by determining the input of a corresponding letter by inputting a '#'key during an input operation that uses any of numeric keys from zero to nine. SOLUTION: Twenty six letters of the alphabet, a period, space and an enter function are allocated to twelve keys in all of ten keys 32. That is, three letters are allocated to nine keys from 'one' to 'nine', the space is allocated to a 'zero' key and enter is allocated to a '#' key respectively. It is easy to understand not by allocating letters to the '#' key which is usually used an abbreviation button in many cases but by allocating an enter key. For instance, in the case of using a horizontal display form in which letters are written from left to right, the letter input is determined by inputting the '#'key that is arranged at lower to the right of the ten key part 32 and the next right letter is smoothly inputted without any particular sense of incongruity.
