i disagree. reality of the qtopia predictive keyboard and actual use
of it
disagrees. talk and theory is fine - actual code that works is
disagreeing.
users of that code are disagreeing.
I have to agree with Raster here. Trolltech did an amazing job on their
QWERTY (onscreen) keypad. I highly recommend you trying it out on the
Neo if you haven't already. Personally, I think it's the best touchpanel
keyboard on the market now. Bar none.
