TEXT INPUT SYSTEM FOR A MOBILE ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHODS THEREOF Overlapping areas of a touch interface of a mobile electronic device are associated with letters such that each area is associated with only one letter. The location of a user's touch on the touch interface is detected. Based on the location, more than one letter may be identified. If more than one letter is identified, predictive text software is used to determine which of the identified letters the user intended to select. The touch interface may be a touchscreen or one or more touchpads.
