Dasher Interface. Basically you move your mouse to create letter groupings from which your text is generated. Maybe it could be used in cell phones with a nipple stick like they have on laptops? (as opposed to the normal 4 way dpad most cell phones seem to have).

I like it, though it takes some getting used to.

This post was made with the program in question and it was not very hard. It actually biases letter choices based on previous input.

Well, it's not just you. It sucks at picking prominent letters at first. Takes some practice to get it a useful vocab.

Make it a spiral like Beyond Good and Evil's Keyboard and you have the best virtual keyboard. Cool stuff none the less

Yeah B&G had a great input. Would be perfect for a Gaming / Mobile Phone device. I could string text together quicker with the spiral then I can with Txt Messaging.
