There is a layout on Greek phone keyboards (not smartphones) in which every letter possibility is divided in 3 letter segments of the alphabet (i.e. one segment is ABC (or ΑΒΓ) another DEF (ΔΕΖ) and so on and so forth). Normally, you press the key as many times as the letter you wish to write (i.e. one click for A, two for B, three for C) or in this different layout you click once for a letter that exists in the word in the series that it is shown then another series in which the next letter exists etc. The phone then creates a word out of those possible letters and spits out the closest result, with no fail.
For example, you want to write the word 'and', you press the sequence 'ABC', then 'MNO' and lastly 'DEF'. Then it creates the word 'and'.
I haven't found something like that in American phones, albeit I use an iPhone now. It's more intuitive than it sounds and it makes texting a lot faster.
If anybody can bring more input about this happening in English phone keyboards is welcome to do so. (It also might have a name that I am not aware of)
