Samsung wants the text messaging interfaces - like T9 and Motorola's iTap -and create a Gmail-like "text threaded conversation" using a new guided process for in-phone text messaging services.
Samsung's new patent includes processes like mapping phone numbers from incoming text messages to stored pictures of the sender and creating SMS threading that emulates an IM interface.

"One of the main differences between iTap and T9 is that iTap is able to complete words, phrases or even full sentences. T9 is unable to guess a word until the user has typed out a number of letters equal to the full word length. iTap will guess the best match based upon a built in dictionary, including words sharing the typed prefix. This dictionary also contains phrases and commonly used sentences. This way the predictive guesses iTap offers are enhanced based upon context of the word that is being typed."
