A data input method and apparatus for inputting data are provided. The Applicants' method for inputting text includes providing the user with an apparatus comprising twelve keys.

By monitoring and correlating a value representative of the chord combination, the user can emulate an entire 104 key keyboard. As embodied on devices which include a display device, the Applicants' method includes displaying a dynamic guide which assists the user in chord entry and completion by displaying the possible characters available from a first input. The method and apparatus can be implemented on any device providing a minimum of twelve keys or a display device which allows for the representation and selection of twelve keys.
