BlackBerry 7130g's SureType™

SureType™ is an innovative keyboard technology that supports the advanced messaging features which most serious users need. Through an integrated keyboard and software system, SureType™ effectively combines a traditional phone keypad and a familiar QWERTY keyboard to create an efficient and familiar dialling and typing experience.

SureType™ allows users to quickly and accurately dial or type either using single-handed operation or two-handed thumb-typing - without limitations of traditional phone keypads. There are no dual keypads, peripherals or hardware transformations required, and there's no need to learn a new way to type.

To help facilitate easy spelling and composition, SureType™ includes intuitive software with a word list of over 30,000 words and the ability to increase that list based on the frequency of use and the names in the handset's address book. It also has the ability to recognise character letter sequences that are common in the English language, such as "-ing". Since the software understands what you're typing, you can concentrate on composing your message rather than the way you're typing it.
