pearl 8130 annoyances
- Since getting the pearl, by biggest annoyances have been the new predictive text that pops up and offers words for you. Because of this I cannot type short words and have to keep going back and erasing them. I want to just have SureType with out the predictive word list appearing.
Second, let's say I'm doing a search in the forums and start typing and accidentally forgot a letter in the middle of a word or a word in the middle of a phrase. Before I just hold the alt key had scroll with the wheel to go left and right between the letters. With the pearl I can't do that. I tried and the dumb track ball started changing all the letters in the word!
Those are a few annoyances right now.

If it chooses the wrong one, I erase it, replace it, and then type the next. It keeps the letter I left it on, and doesn't take that much extra time. Easier and quicker than switching to multitap and back again, or scrolling through all the options suretype presents.
Also, if it's confusing words you use often, go into the autotext options and fix it that way.Last edited by mkfrmn; 02-04-08 at 04:04 AM.

- Don't get me wrong. I love sure type and use it all the time and can type really fast. Is there a typing test we can take for blackberry's? I'm kinda wondering what my speed is! LOL.
My main one was the predictive text. But I turned that off as you instructed and now things are back to normal.
