I actually think of it as "restrictive" instead of "predictive" because it only allows me to write what it thinks I want, and should give up as soon as it couldn't match a word. Having to wait 2s per letter for it to write what I want instead of what it thinks I want sucks :) Rui -- Pzat!

"Predictive" keyboard not actually predictive?
Hello everyone, this is my first openmoko email, so please be gentle! It seems clear to me that the so-called "predictive" keyboard is not actually predictive at all; it is actually "fuzzy", in terms of how it maps your stylus or finger position to a set of possible intended letters. In particular, surely this text in the wiki - "The word recognition will try to guess the next inputs and displays the word it thinks you want to write." - is just nonsense, isn't it? I've never seen it guess at any letters beyond those that I've already pressed. I'm ready to register and update the wiki to say something closer to reality - but I just want to check first that I'm not missing or misunderstanding something. Thanks!
