I think Handcent text app has a T9 keyboard option.

If you're rooted, look in the All Things Root section for the HTC keyboard thread...provides the best keyboard available on the Droid, aside from, IMHO, the Swype keyboard (which is not T9).



Redflea, Thanks for the reply. I thought I had seen the T9 in my handcent as well. For some odd reason I cannot find it anywhere.

Rogue, I am not seeing the voice button on any of the keyboards. What is your set up for hancent? Do I need to be creating a text message.

Thanks for the previous quick reply

I meant its on the keyboard so you need to load that first, whether it be on handcent or on droids native messaging app

so in the end nothing to do with handcent lol..

it is a great program though and worth a look
