Is there any way to set up my SMS to make it T9? I dont really like using the QWERTY keyboard.
I know that theres an app for using T9 but I dont like the idea of having to copy & paste into a message, it kind of defeats the purpose. Plus then every time I get a new message I would have to close out the message, open the app, and repeat the copy & paste process.
I dont know if employees at Apple read this, but would it be a ton of trouble to add that into the next update?
PS- The Droid Incredible has a T9 keyboard **Cough cough**

T9 is so 1990s . I dont really see that Apple will go backwards but you can let them know that youd prefer the kludgy T9 - http://apple.com/feedback

I was raised in the 90s! I find it easier to use with one hand that way, plus I dont have to look at the screen as often.
Thanks for the feedback though!

YES!!! T9 please!!! I dont know why there are people who support for qwerty only input for iPhone on their grandmas lives but having the T9 input as an OPTION for others who need it is really not going to inconvenience anyone!
Anyways just let market forces do the talking: if any genius who can offer T9 input as a default keyboard on the iPhone 4, I shall most gladly pay up to US$29.90 for it!
I know for certain it can be done: BAIDU input for Chinese language has succeeded in offering that through cydia & the T9 prediction with editable chinese dictionary is phenomena!!!
there is an app named FastPad that offers T9 input but it is not a default keyboard choice & u have to copy & paste again after input so its not a true solution...
If someone is able to come up with a tweak for T9 input as an inbuilt keyboard, pls let me know: Ill gladly invest money to buy shares as I know LOADS & HORDES of iPhone owners whod PAY BIG MONEY for iPhone T9 input without having to copy & paste, & with editable dictionary!!
let the money do the talking!!! lets all either profit &/or benefit from this much awaited T9 tweak!!!

It is not going to happen. T9, which stands for Text on 9 keys, is a patented predictive text technology for mobile phones. I doubt Apple would waste time to develop their own format or pay for it.
