This looks very promising. I like this idea. The only issue I see is
that
the least used characters (numbers) are the easiest to enter. IMHO,
the
mostly used characters should be accessible without dragging.
I think it's a good default as it reuses the users knowledges from t9
systems. It's important to be easy to pick up. But an alternative
layout optimised for text input is good, as is a possibility for power
users to define there own layout, or even special layout for different
programs/tasks.

What about a continuously variable system which starts with the most
commonly used letters and then adjusts itself based on user input. It
could learn which letters a specific person uses to type and make them
more prominent. Then, depending on modes the programming or web
searching or other keyboards would automatically adapt to the best
layout based on the users individual behavior.
