input system the company said could predict and suggest entire sentences
based on users' past typings.
"Our aim with iTAP 6.0 is to make text messaging from a mobile device keypad
simple and efficient so these devices are used as much for business
communication as for casual communications," said Neal Campbell, general
manager of the Lexicus Division of Motorola. "The iTAP 6.0 input method
makes it much easier to construct full concise sentences. This novel
approach to inputting text was well received by all categories of users,
including youth as well as business professionals in limited trials in
Europe and North America."
Motorola said the iTAP 6.0 technology will ship in its handsets early next
year.
Other predictive text providers include Zi Corp. and its eZiText and eZiTap
products.
