Got inspired by Devine and their work on letter detection. Went down a couple different paths, ended up with this (non-unique) idea of splitting up the alphabet into 4 parts, allowing for any letter in 3 or less dpad entries.
This is a prototype. Not sure how I'd want to allow for other punctuation, or numbers or even "done-ness" of entry. But it "works" enough for a quick show/prototype.
@Marisko thanks for trying it out. I'm not sure how much more time to spend on this, as it would require quite a bit more work to make it "usable", and even then, how much text are you going to be entering using this method? I do have another silly thing/experiment i'd love to try, which is some kind of basic auto-complete...
