do you use the swiping function of it? I've found that to be TERRIBLE at "prediction based on context" e.g. understanding if I want "if" or "of" it does the one that doesn't make sense in context. and it doesn't understand that if I type a word, and then delete it and retype it, maybe it should give me something different the 2nd time around (particularly irritating for if/of).

I use it occasionally when I have only one hand available. Never had much trouble with it but I noticed you must be quite precise when swiping. As for suggestions, usually one of the three words at the top is the one I need so I rarely need to delete a word unless I really mistyped it badly.
