I do NONE of those input methods, i use the little virtual qwerty keyboard, its faster than T9.(i can even fast input with my fingernail) specialy good for sms,mms, website address's & calendar input. can't really use it on the move though...
The answer to your question is NO CHANCE (if its not available already, it aint EVER gonna happen) |

some italian ppl have done t9 for p800 using appforge booster but its in very early stages it works though but not with texts its a standalone app but at least its possible

I know there was rumours about it some time ago but it got quiet for some odd reason.

There is however in the control panel under input, a pull down menu..at the present time you can only select multi-tap, but if SE put this option in, surely it would be a matter of time for them to include T9?? |

Don't see what the fuss is about -the virtual qwerty keyboard is genius if you ask me...
I mean, with the flip keyboard, who on earth would want to use that for the composition of SMS etc??

There is an alpha here which we talked about in this thread: http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=33784&forum=35 and it can be downloaded from here: www.smartphoneitalia.com
I haven't tried it, since I like the qwerty keyboard. And it'st just an alpha. I just downloaded it.

thats the point: the virtual keyboard is much too small. its impossible to input something if one is walking.

well considering the P800 is not exactly just a phone but a phone cum PDA, and considering using the flip buttons are difficult to press in the 1st place, so i find, I dont think there ever will be T9 for this phone from SE.
I couldnt even imagine trying to txt constantly with the flip on (get urself a REAL phone for those txt addicts), I nearly always open the flip coz wotever bozo designed the SMS software on the phone should be shot coz I have found that if ur recipitent has more than 1 number, the phone seems 2 select the number for u even if u mite want to chose between the numbers like on the T68i!
Also a linked issue with this is I dont file numbers as mobile(h) and mobile(w) coz when I sync with Outlook it only saves 1 mobile number! I dont know where they got their programmers from, cloud cookoo land mayb...
