The phone is great, I love it, but how do I get an apostrophe when I am sending a text? I have tried every key but can't find it & it's driving me mad!

Bought this phone 3 days ago & it is absolutely amazing, the feel & look of the phone is great, & it has lots of features. I only bought it because my other phone broke again (Sony Ericsson k770i). I haven't got round to using the sports pack that came with the phone yet (bought on the O2 network) it's the only place that seems to sell the pack with the phone at the moment, battery life is good I can get about 3 days out of it with fair use, I just wish the screen could have been a little sharper (more resolution) other than that I am glad I purchased it great phone good job Samsung.

Brought this phone today. They only had the pink edition in my local shop so I brought that one. I haven't had the heart monitor nor the stride sensor, does anyone know where I can purchase one, because I went running with my mi coach & it doesn't do the workout because it needs these accessories, so if anyone can help that would be great, all in all great phone & a good price too.
