Ahh yes and reading a post about something the phone already does is really helpful and enlightening. Such a thoughtful and helpful thread, you are a tribute to your gene pool, you should stand proud of this thread. If I were you I print it out, frame it maybe even attach it to your resume for all to see. I am so inspired by this thread that I am going to see if I can rent a billboard and have it put on there for all the world to see. How does "Petermg mental giant of our time" strike you? Hold your head high, and text away while driving, your a serving mankind with great honor!

lol i text while driving all the time. i see nothing wrong with it. if you do, fine, but i'd rather text somebody, rather than call them sometimes. the no texting law is almost as stupid as the seatbelt laws.

So you try to respond but you only have a FULL QWERTY (YEA!) hardware keyboard or software version or some hyped up keyboard that still requires the use of TWO HANDS no matter how COOL it looks? Well for those of you in this situation, I have the SOLUTION!!!

Now you can txt/type like you did way back in 1985 when your cell phone was just a phone with txting and you could ONLY txt using one hand!!! First you want a SIP KEYPAD or PHONEPAD. Here is a GREAT ONE!

Also there is a cab that makes the keypad default to T9 rather than ABC, which is what I use.

Also I recommend using the Touchback cab, it makes your phone vibrate when you press one of the keypad buttons! Only takes up 4k!!!

I have attached three cabs that I use. But you can check out all the options via the links I provided!

Hope this helps! I had my titan for a long time and would spend a lot of time on the road and had to ignore a lot of txt messages because of my dilemma. Wish I knew about this 9 months ago!

Have fun txting!

Hey there very useful thread for a few people .... somehow I got used to the texting with one hand using the compact qwerty haha ...

PS: Forget the haters... let them be

Glad it was of some use to you!! I didn't know about this so when I found it I was very excited! As for the haters, these are guys with no women in their lives either NOW or EVER. Yeah, they have NEVER had a girlfriend, lol, or they are below the drivin age! HAHAHAHA! Those who have girlfriends know what I mean.. those who don't.. continue to type away angrily at their keyboards in search of purpose

Exactly!! So do many people, guess it's just these goody-two-shoed, raised-by-their-granny folks who drive with their eyes on the road AT _ALL_ TIMES and their hands at 10 and 2! LOL. Gimme a break. Who are you guys foolin'? Too many losers willin to jump on any bandwagon as soon as they IMAGINE an opportunity. Go ahead guys.. since it's basically all you have anyway in sense of purpose. In fact.. make a drivers training video and send me the link to it on youtube!
