Ah, isn't predictive text wonderful!
Think of all the Freudian slips we can blame on predictive text.

Hi Steve, maybe caus txt msg writing look sometin like dis. Well, pretty
much *smile*. So some people find productive text not productive at all. And
yeah I know, Nokia phones are clever enough to recognise words like l8r and so
on but still... That's why perhaps some people, blind or otherwise, don't like
productive text. But I totally take your point about not liking something
before properly trying it first. Having said this, I use productive text all
the time and love it.
Cheers,
Amro

Hi Alex,
You can't see the point of what? Typing less characters? Why not try it,
tell us where you trip up and we'll try to help you. What is there not to see
the point of? I find it hard to understand when people just say I don't see
the point, without being clear on any down sides to it.
All the best
Steve

Hi,
That is because you don't take the time to learn it. If you did, you'd
realize how bloody fantastic it is.
