A handheld electronic device comprising an input apparatus, a processor apparatus, and an output apparatus, said input apparatus comprising a number of input members, said processor apparatus comprising a processor and a memory having stored therein a plurality of objects comprising a plurality of language objects, said memory having stored therein at least three selectable languages available thereon, one of said at least three selectable languages being an operative language, and another of said at least three selectable languages having been the operative language immediately prior to the one of said selectable languages, said memory also having stored therein a number of routines which, when executed by said processor, causes said handheld electronic device to perform operations comprising:
detecting a predetermined input;
detecting a text input, wherein said text input is output by the output apparatus; and
in response to said detecting said text input, switching said operative language between said one of said at least three selectable languages and said another of said at least three selectable languages.
2. The handheld electronic device, according to claim 1 wherein said input members include a plurality of keys and said routine causes said handheld electronic device to perform operations further comprising detecting as said predetermined input a chording actuation of at least two of said keys.
3. The handheld electronic device, according to claim 2 wherein said chording actuation is an actuation of a first key followed by an actuation of a second key.
4. The handheld electronic device, according to claim 2 wherein said chording actuation is a press-and-hold actuation of a first key and an actuation of a second key.
