My current phone changes the keyboard type based on context.  If
you're typing into a password field, it doesn't try to predict.  Same
with an email address field.  But for the message body it becomes
predictive.  It also adds words to its dictionary from the current
context - words you've already typed which weren't in the dictionary,
or words in the message you're replying to.  Also if you use a word
multiple times it eventually adds it to the dictionary.
