Is there an alternative to the standard keypad-keyboard for text entry on mobile phones? I find it highly unergonomic and slow and I assumed there'd be alternatives. I haven't come across anything useful so far though. I'm not familiar with how mobile phones work software wise, but I think it should be possible to change the keyboard layout.

In case no alternative means of mobile phone have been devised, it's time to change that! *shai?!*

I shall think and experiment a little on how letters might be arranged for fast and easy input in the meanwhile.
