Joys of Blackberry Auto Script
I love my little blackberry pearl. But its auto script makes no sense and it doesn’t seem to be learning. I’ve decided that it has gone “#5 is alive” on me and is choosing words it wants instead of what would be logical for me to write.
If you don’t have one, each button has 2 letters that it stands for; you’re supposed to type and the program deciphers what word it thinks you mean to write. It can make typing fast, but it requires you read your email or text message before you click send.
In the beginning it was easy mistakes — “are” instead of “see” — (one touch to the a/s button and two touches to the e/r button). But now I think it’s just getting cheeky: “kilt” instead of “july,” “beef” instead of “need,” “gay” instead of “hat,” “yofat” instead of “today.” I’m not sure what recourse I have. I can’t wash its mouth out with soap.
