Windows Phone 8 soft keyboard will adapt to the user's fingers

Microsoft designed a one-hand usable soft keyboard for Windows Phone 8. The curve-shaped soft keyboard enables users to input letters with one thumb without staring at the screen. The soft keyboard was designed with various character spacings and used ambiguity parsing to determine the input words. Pictures of the new soft keyboard were leaked by Microsoft Research, and it worked on the HTC Trophy phone. Therefore, in addition to Windows Phone 8, it will likely also be provided to users with Windows Phone 7.8.
