Hi everyone. I am looking around for a good cell phone (I just lost mine). You know that sense of panic when you lose your phone with all the numbers that you haven't backed up in a long time? Well, that was me two days ago. What a pain. Anyway, I was wondering about this T9 technology that is supposed to be on almost all cell phones. It's like your phone is smarter than you MUAH...! It's like HAL900!!! I took the test and got pretty good at it.

lol you use shorthand cause you're Filipino:p

I like T9 cause it imo promotes good spelling and grammar...plus it's infinitely easier to read!! I hate it when I get txts from my relatives back home or even my aunt in L.A. and it's in shorthand and it's such a pain to read it when you're used to everyone in the U.S. doing predictive text...

OMG the thing is I have a fairly sizable text messaging bucket, but no one else does that's worth texting so kinda sucks...
