With the typing...

First, forget about trying to correct words as you type them. Just keep typing the word you want to type and it should correct. Over time, the more you use the phone the better it gets at the prediction.

This seems to be a common first complaint from people that have been texting with a keypad for years. It's just a matter of trading up the old way with the new way. If you're a longtime smartphone user that has been tapping with the pen then it wont take you too long to get used to it.

I now simply refuse to use a keypad to text. It's been years since I've had a mobile with a keypad, and I can get a message out way faster using the iphones touch screen then I ever could using a keypad.
