Motorola's iTAP 6.0 predicts entire sentences

Motorola's proprietary text input system has reached version 6.0, capable of not only predicting words but whole sentences, reports InfoSync World.

"Just like the well-known T9 text input system, the iTAP system requires only one key touch to select a letter, and also proposes the next word you intend to add to your message or note. By using past text input and the context of where this text was entered, however, the iTAP system now also suggests entire sentences."
