Just a side thought. I always thought if I could have an alternate entry method to the semi standard keyboard described, I'd me much happier.
What if only 1 2 and 3 worked? I could easily hover my thumb over three buttons without looking. My starter options are something like
1:A-I, 2:J-R, 3:S-" "
I choose 2 and get another menu 1:J-L, 2:M-O, 3:P-R
I choose 2 again and get 1:M, 2:N, 3:O
And 1 get me an M.
Every letter and a space are just three clicks of three keys away. (3^3).
Sure, it looks kind of complex, but it's no more of a learning curve for me than trying to always figure out the little letters under the little numbers.
