That's weird then! :) I have tested the toolkit demo on many Nokia
devices and they do behave like I described below. You can download the
demo from LWTUI site, go to Dialogs, and then mess with some of the
parameters presented in the text input components. When you click to
edit they immediately switch to a standard TextBox so the predictive
input can be used.
 
There might be some other components that don't behave this way though;
I'm still to investigate more.

Hmm, that's not what the presenters said at the talk (Lightweight UI
Toolkit For The Java(tm) ME Platform- Making Compelling Java ME UI's
Easy) when I asked. However, I'm always willing to be corrected
otherwise my marriage would go nowhere.... ;->

If Input Method Editors (Foreign language input, etc.) work then that's
great.

Cheers,

Actually, when you click on a text input control, it switches to the
standard input control (TextField) so all advantages of predictive
input, input masks, etc. are still there. Similar approach to GMail for
JME.

As I brought up after the presentation at JavaOne, there is a serious
problem with input using this approach. The Game Canvas was not designed
to be the input mechanism of choice for text and thus a lot of
implementations to not support IMEs there.

I think it looks good for display purposes.
