PhatSpell includes 13 dictionaries for 10 languages. If downloaded as a CAB file PhatSpell includes US English dictionary only, while other dictionaries can be downloaded directly onto your Smartphone using the Download Dictionaries command. Along with the spell checker functionality, PhatSpell also adds standard editing text commands such as text selection, cut, copy, and paste. PhatSpell is extremely easy to use: to access PhatSpell while editing text, simply press and hold the assigned hot key for about a second."</i><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/paxton-20070611phatspellsp.jpg" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />It seems smartphones are becoming more and more like laptops everyday. We have office suites, last week I posted about a printing option, and now we have PhatSpell 1.0 for smartphones. You define a hot key and it when you press it down for more than a second, a menu will give you the option to check and correct your spelling. You can use it in Word mobile, Excel mobile, emails, note programs, internet forums and more. It even has a cut, copy and paste options. The negative? It does not work with Documents To Go. I have sent an email to DataViz to see if they can play nicely in the future. If you need help with spelling then you can purchase your very own copy at our <a href="http://software.smartphonethoughts.com/product.asp?id=12302">affiliate store</a>.

Wow! Now that's cool. Who doesn't need a spell checker? Awesome. I think I'll be giving this one a try.

I couldn't agree more. The big question is WHY doesn't our smartphones already include this. Seems like a no brainer. :cry:
