Swype: New Text Input Method From the T9 Inventor!?
New Text Input Method For Touch Devices!?
With the 12-key numeric keypad appearing on 95% of all handsets shipped, it is easy to take input interface technologies on the mobile phones for granted but popularity of new keyless handset signals that mobile phones as we know them may soon be a thing of the past?
As the touch-sensitive screens are becoming ever more popular in the high-end market and as the handsets feature-set continues to expand, and the number and variety of applications on phones grows, the mechanisms for interacting and controlling them are put under ever-greater strain and the user demand for ease of use has never been greater!
Interfaces, such as motion sensing, haptics, multitouch, advanced voice recognition capabilities and evolutions to predictive text functionality are set to boost data entry efficiencies and introduce a level of multimodality never before experienced on a mobile phones!
