Glad to know you like it :)

T9 is Text on 9 keys. You may find it on older phones. Number 2 on the keypad has ABC. if you want to type C you have to tap it thrice. (I hate this format ...lol)

But with other dialers when I pressed 2 it would go to a contact whose phone number had 2 in it. (that's really weird. I can't memorize hundreds of numbers now can I ? )

That's why i chose TP. Pressing 2 will take me to the names starting with A, and 4 with G and so on. Easy for me. yay \\o//
For eg: I have to press 274 for Ash

Well, when you press 2 it searches your phone contacts with all three letters on 2 i.e. A, B and C and it applies to each button. So its great.

But it didn't list them alphabetically. it confused me too much.
Why make the most basic thing on a phone the most compicated one?

Its bcoz it searches your contacts using all the combination and permutation of letters that are on keys you type. So if you type 2,3 and 4... it will search with A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I and all its combinations which matches with anything from your contacts list and not necessarily from start but even from within names in between.

Thanks Ashwin :)
i did tried the beta version but found it heavy, even it looks heavy.
currently using Swift X KB ( Thanks to Ashwin ) but not as Good as Swype.
i love Swype :love1:

Apparently v4.8 wasn't released in China. They released v5 for them.

A cool feature of Touchpal v5 is: Tilt to change the keypad. (from qwerty, cootek plus, or t9) :)

Btw you can download 12 themes for v5: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17546868&postcount=13
