PhoneType for T9 Text Entry (free app)

2009-03-06
hey everyone Daniel Webster here Sparky now calm and today I'm gonna show you a cool free application that allows you to use t9 text on your windows mobile device so a refresh of mine recently inquired about the Omni and was asking if the device had t9 text because she's used to just texting on a regular standard mobile phone and I said well I'm not particularly sure about that phone but some windows mobile devices allow you to use it but I found a program that incorporates t9 text as a keyboard and it's called foam type so to activate the t9 text you just select this little button right here otherwise it's just standard text like you can just push the button numerous times to select words and I'll show you that in just a second but if I want to type hey how you doing I can just go and type and it can select different words and you can also add new words I'll show you that in a second too and it works pretty well it's pretty fast and as you can see it typed perfectly and suggested the exact same words I wanted to look for so if I wanted to add a new word let's just clear this real fast okay let's say I wanted to add PocketNow or something like that so I can just so if I wanted to add a new word I just type in here and now you have to type in standard so P oh oops see ke T and you have to type it numerous times just like on regular keyboards for regular texting and there it is it typed it with a period okay so that's perfect and another thing you can add is if you wanted to add more words you can just click a letter and hit right here and it will say new word and you can also add a new word there and just type it whatever you want to do so another cool feature about this program is that it allows for an entire symbols list so if I wanted to type like $200 I can go here and hit to 0-0 and it works perfect and you have to hold it down just like on regular standard mobile devices okay so I'll just delete this and if you've recently seen the post by Anton Deane Agee it shows you how to increase the sensitivity of your Windows Mobile touch screen and it works really well for all programs but this one in particular so I can just type hey how are you doing again so let's like select t9 so and it works really well so I'm Daniel Webster with packing.com and I'll post a link after I'm done with this video thanks for watching
