Rating: the avatar

Zi Corporation has unveiled a new joyZtick text input solution for the Chinese market. The joyZtick is for mobile phones or gaming devices and supports Chinese input methods such as Stroke, Pinyin and Zhuyin or symbol input.

The service is able to predict the whole words or phrases in the Chinese language to make text input in the Chinese language faster and possible from a joystick rather than typing on a mobile device.

From the press release
Milos Djokovic, President and CEO of Zi Corporation said, “The Chinese consumer electronics industry is constantly introducing new devices to eager consumers. Our newest solution, joyZtick, is very easy to implement, and coupled with our other text input solutions, it will allow device manufacturers to extend the technology to almost any type of mobile electronic device in the market today.
“Zi has extensive experience developing text input software for Chinese, and our local development and product support capabilities position us well to continue to deliver customized solutions to the highly sophisticated Asian market,” Djokovic added.

What we think
We haven’t seen it and we haven’t tested it and we don’t speak or write Chinese but it sounds simple and funky.
