Yes Amro, I use one hand, find it easier and quicker than two. However, others 
might differ and prefer two.

  Hi Barbra and all,  Can you type on the qwerty keyboard using one hand only?

  Cheers,
  Amro

    I am using an E71 which of course has a qwerty keypad. I am not sure why 
you say predictive text is not used or of any benefit on these phones. Surely 
anything which cuts down on the number of key presses needed is a good thing? I 
too have never liked qwerty phones, but having now used an E71 for several 
weeks now realise how fantastic and easy to use they ar. But I do recognise its 
a matter of personal preference as I hated them for so long. I think they ar 
easier to use now than the first ones and in addition to that, I am more 
confident at giving it a go.

    Hi Eleanor,

    There is no advantage. The QWERTY keyboards don't use predictive. Predictive
    only kicks in if you use the front panel.  I don't like QWERTY keyboards on
    phones, they are too small.

    All the best

    Steve

    What is the advantage of the qwerty keyboard for predictive text?

    Hi Angela if you have a querty keypad then pridictive texting is brilliant. 
    I use to struggle with it when I had a numeric keypad phone.
