Improved predictive text?

2 replies · 3,281 views · Started 28 March 2008

On some other phones I have used (for example, Sony Ericsson Kx series) I can type the first part of a long word and then toggle through all the possible words that match that string at the start of a word.
For example, if i wanted to type 'deliberately' then 'delib' would be enough to get me a short list of words including deliberately. It seems on E51 you cannot do this, and you have to enter every single letter. Is this correct or is there a configuration setting I am missing?

Hi Tumbleweed,
There will be shortly an application called Adaptxt which is perhaps what you are looking for so have a look at this :- http://keypoint-tech.com/?node_id=1.2.1&id=62

and this :-

Hope this helps.
