Abstract

A method and system for performing text-entry by facilitating construction of a canned message on a wireless handheld device, the canned message being comprised of at least two canned message segments (i.e., words and/or phrases). A user selects a first canned message segment from a first set of canned message segments displayed on the handheld device. Upon selection of the first caned message segment, the handheld device may display a second set of canned message segments. The second set of canned message segments may have at least one canned message segment that grammatically continues the first canned message segment selected. The user may select a second canned message segment from the second set of canned message segments. A composite of the first canned message and the second canned message may define the canned message.
