Default Text Autocorrect 3rd party app?

Hi All,

My company just moved me over to the MotoQ w/Sprint service. My old phone was a Treo650 with Goodlink.

I guess I got used to some of the Goodlink features namely the Autocorrect feature where when I was typing an email if I typed a lower case i and then hit the space bar, Goodlink would replace the lower case i with an upper case I.

Alot of abbreviated words like fri would be replaced with Friday.

Is there a third party app that does this same thing for the Q phone?

Thanks,

Yes, I do. Not even close to what Goodlink did.

I think it depends on preference, but its interesting you say that about goodlink because I can't stand predictive text.

It's not predictive text per se, it basically replaces one piece of text with another.

It's more like Autocorrect in the Micorsoft Office products.

I'd just love to see something that would automatically change things like "im" to "I'm" like my old Treo 700p used to. I can't stand the way the "predictive text"is implemented on the Q...
