I think most people that don't like it assume that it is impossible for such a tiny 'computer' to do all that guesswork. If you stick to the everyday vocabulary, it makes typing very fast. No way you can go that fast manually because you have to wait every now and then if you want to type two letters from the same key, which does not occur with t9.
Another thing to come over is to ignore what it shows you as long as you have not completed the word or have at least entered four or five characters. Many dislikers look at what t9 produces which is not what they want. You need to have confidence.
Eveery time I use it am a little surprised that it is so correct. It even learns to some degree.
I only wish you could edit the added words, especially to delete misspelled and rarely used ones.

you NEVER have to wait manually! if u want N and N or M and N or anything together, you don thave to wait, just push the joystick down or to the right, and you are movin on to the next letter! its easy, it becomes natural, like adding a space.

I don't know what I'd do without T9...plus with SE's phones it's quite simple.
Have to agree with EastCoastStar... I'd like to edit or delete some of the words rarely use like "strident"

haha "strident"? I know T9 has a dictionary, but does it actually define what the words are? What does strident even mean? hahaha

I never gave T9 a chance to ON because of my language. Is there any word in Bahasa Indonesia in T9 dictionary? I don't think so.
I always use English language menu in my SE phones (cuz menu in Bahasa Indonesia sucks!) but typing sms mostly in Bahasa Indonesia. It never cross my mind to set T9 ON even if T9 is available in Bahasa Indonesia cuz I often use many "slank" words in my language...

I think the ability to store new words not in the dictionary differs from phone to phone.... I wish t9 had an "add word to dictionary option" would be great...especially for slang words and stuff....

Well, the only thing I find it usefull is that it helps you with misspelling the words. But it doesn't correct your grammar.
