you know this way of inputting everyone capable writing is used to? it involves pen and paper....
(in other words: +1 to text regognition)
Edit: the link for that app:

I suppose Chinese N900 users already got lucky with character recognition input driven by stylus?
People have been trying to install the Penpower based N900 Chinese character input software with support for latin characters.

Just came to my mind that how about qwerty but with added functionality combined with auto-completion and prediction. With this I mean that keyboard would adjust slightly it size on letters by what it predicts to come (of course by analyzing all your writings on device and calculating occurance index and giving weighted index for words to come). Or has it already been done? It would bold and made couple of pixels wider and higher those letters that it predicts for. Not too much butt settle amount.
I mean that it doesnīt make any sense to have letters equal size (on touch screen) if hard fact is that every language has itīs only certain letters that are mostly used. You canīt start changing letters place even-thought it might mean that user could learn to type faster but itīs pretty obvious that end user would get frustrated quite soon if you throw something too new and weird on this subject.

The only thing that would be better than the hw-keyboard is voice recognition. hmm.. a combo of this two maybe...

I think I was the last one here to give up on swype. I used it intensively for weeks and could never get it faster than the keyboard. I'd love to try another system, though.

Edit: exactly, was qwo....
Edit2: there is a qwo.deb at least on the debian server and it runs on the n900 - just tried it. wouldn't make me wonder if it is also in maemo. so admiral: nothing to do: its already there.
