How can it be fine.... Without T9 ???!!!!

I was shocked to know that some of my friends do not use the T9 dictionary feature which eases the pain of typing. If you’re a QWERTY keypad user, don’t bother reading this… but for all those whose cell phones have 9 keys only and yet do not use T9, Welcome to the Earth!! : ) No, Seriously… You must read this! And to all those who already use T9 and believe that entire world uses it, I wanna say- No, few days back I believed so too… but it came as a shock to me that some people (known for typing really long msgs) actually do not use T9 :O :O :O and WHY !!!!! God knows… I wonder how many hours they spend to come up with that one msg !! :D

T9 -Text on 9 keys is a software which predicts the word which can be formed by using the letters on the keys that you have pressed… ok… example:

Suppose you want to type the word ‘home’, all you have to do is press 4-6-6-3 once once once & once respectively… :P :D because ‘h’ is on 4, ‘o’ on 6, ‘m’ on 6, ‘e’ on 3 !!! Now you’ll see that the word ‘good’ is displayed on the screen. This is because 4-6-6-3 combination can also generate the word ‘good’. So, when you wanna explore the all combinations of given set of keys, you can toggle by pressing “*” (star)

Typing the same word without T9 will cause some pain in your thumb :P because only for typing ‘home’ you have to go like this- 4-4-6-6-6-6-3-3 :D Senseless innit…???

Try typing MONICA. All you have to do is type 6-6-6-4-2-2 with T9 on, as against 6-6-6-6-6-6-4-4-4-2-2-2-2 with T9 off….
Choice is yours……

Btw, I wanna tag some friends here ;) --
Renuka, Sukumar, Janhavi, Vrishali…. And the list goes on.! :P... Do Use T9, dear friends ! : )
Goodnight/day !
