METHOD FOR ENTERING HANDWRITTEN MESSAGES IN SELECTIVE CALL RECEIVERS

摘要

A selective call receiver (100) that receives, decodes and stores selective call messages has a digitizer (104) that accepts handwritten characters and a recognition engine (622), coupled to the digitizer (104), that generates readable characters from the handwritten characters. A memory (604), coupled to the recognition engine (622), stores the readable characters, a decoder (626), coupled to the memory (604), associates the readable characters with the selective call messages, and a display (102), coupled to the memory (604) and the decoder (626), displays a message with the readable characters associated therewith.
