I agree with that too - but that's not what my post was about!  Please
don't hijack my thread with other random keyboard gripes!

Can I take it that you both agree with what I was writing about?

Thanks,

I'd have to agree with Rui, I've installed FDOM which has raster's 
terminal keyboard so I just don't worry about it anymore

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 :)

"Predictive" keyboard not actually predictive?

2008-09-14 Thread Neil Jerram
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!
  Neil
