  I have tested both, conclusion ? The anemic processor and RAM on pre-FP1 devices like my E50 don't allow me to be happy with these kind of apps.
  
  I'm looking forward to an E71: with all the hardware shortkeys and contacts software improvements, I hope I won't need these kind of app.
  Plus I don't like the way the interface for showing results looks messed up. They better implement an option to choose what you want to be indexed and what you don't.
  
  I don't know if it's only me, but I'm starting to get fed up with all these apps being in "beta stage" forever.
  Last one is Adaptxt: it's taking them so long that I'm now simply going to buy a full QWERTY E71 with built-in predictive input and 'spellchecker'.
  Are they aware that the guys who buy mobile software are the same who buy new hardware when available ? Perhaps they are waiting for Nokia to roll E71 enhancements to all their future devices....
  
  Oh well, just a rant....

  This looks ok, I'll test it, because SQK works only half way on my phone (E51). As I told you Zach a while ago SQK makes my caller ID disappear if I call contacts through it. Unfortunetly the Skyteam support dose not support and just gave me a lame answer "we have tested the product on our devices and there was no problem" well THX Skyteam I wasn't interested if it works on your end... Anyway I updated SQK about a moth ago and it still has this bug :( I hope when the new firmware (T-mobile version) comes out for the E51it will fix this problem... Then again I might just wait for the E71 as merlin said and just use qwerty. Otherwise SQK is great, I use it for starting apps.

  This might be a great temporary alternative for you then. Definitely worth a look...

  Well I started testing...
  It works for me far better than SQK!!! It has some lag compared to SQK at first, but it's hardly noticeable.
  Zach I have to disagree with you on point number 1. It dose have history and it dose put the most used apps or links at the top of the list. Just tried it with "clock" - i use that a lot for waking up on time - at first i had to choose it from the middle of the list but the second time I pressed "2" (=c) it was right there at the top. Same with contacts. So it dose learn what you use most.
  Pleased to say that my caller ID shows through T9nav unlike SQK.
  On point 2 and 3 also have to disagree. I stared the T9nav and it worked instantly like a charm. I did not have to wait any time before getting results.
  Navigation is just as fast as SQK, it is a bit chopyer than SQK, but still dose a great job.
  On point 4, well tabs are good but in the first tab you have everything combined, and then why use them at all... I'll probably let them know to have a tabs on-off feature, and then the D-pad functions can be integrated.
  
  Opposed to SQK T9nav brings out the entire options menu for contacts, meaning not just call and create message, but all others too (that I don't use but it's there and that's good)
  
  One other feature I noticed is that it indexes calendar events too, which is very usefull.
  
  So all in all I'm switching to T9nav from SkyQuiKey. IMHO it's better.
  
  The discrepancies of lag an history can result that I have a Nokia E51 and Zach probably tested it on a N95 8G NAM (Zach correct me if I'm wrong) and also it could be that I downloaded a different updated version (v00.05.06_RC11 ; build 20080521_185434)

  Interesting. History still doesn't work for me on either device I tested with.
  
  As for lag and indexing, I am using an N95 8GB but I find it to be slow on my N78 as well. Indexing 800+ audio files along with my 1500 contacts, etc is going to be a disaster regardless of the device. Until you can select which content to index, the app is totally useless for me. Once that happens though, if they also add shortcuts (and if history works for me) I'll definitely take another look at it.
  
  And I still find that where SQK is smooth and instant, T9nav is constantly freezing for two seconds at a time during use. Makes for a poor user experience in my opinion. Looking forward to future builds...

  Yeah I'm sure the media files make it sluggish in the indexing faze. I have a little over 1000 contacts, but only 3-400 media files, so It wasn't so much to handle.
  Smoothness goes to SQK for sure, but as you have the history problem with T9nav I have the caller ID problem with SQK. These bugs will remain mysteries... :D

  Well after testing T9nav for a few day I'm going back to SQK. Zach I have to give this one to you. T9nav looked great at first but it slowed my phone down noticeably. I have to wait seconds before anything happens. This is weird, because T9nav should have lower consumption than SQK. I hope the dev guys hack the bugs out, because there is potential in this app.

  Thanks for finding this, to be honest I'm happy to try anything other than SkyeQuiKey. I recently had a miserable experience with them...and have realized just how bad their customer service is!
  
  I had to have my phone replaced due to a hardware fault, but due to their stupid licensing agreement I'm now in the position where I own a product that I can't use!
  
  It's amazing to me that I've purchased their product, but they are unwilling to help me get it up and running on my new phone.
