The predictive text input on my p990i is crap. for instance if I want to type the word "do" (without quotes) it comes up as domino's because I onced included that word in a text. The annoying thing is that do is 7 letters shorter than domino's and I have to scroll down through 18 options to get to do, or I have to type dominos and then delete the extra characters.

Is there anyway to alter this so that it recommends a word of the same length as you have typed in by default? or is the sony T9 now suddenly crap, especially when compared to my w800i?

The whole point of the pred text is to reduce ur key punches. If u want to type a real short word like "do" type "d" "o" then space. The domino shouldnt show up. One thing i like about the pred text is that its adaptive. It monitors the words u use. In my case if u type "do", "dongle" shows up as an option 1st.

you obviously have not used a lot of T9 text input or else this problem would just be solved by adding the word "do" in (my words)

i have been using it since the T39m its SO GOOD that i can't do without it
