Intellectualization of text entry on the basis of T9 Input Method is proposed. For the implementation of the proposed method of text entry for the Ukrainian language, a number of options for the distribution of letters into groups are studied. The distribution for the keyboard-order of letters, and for the order, which is based on the frequency of use of letters for words corps language are proposed.
