Abstract
A device may include a processor and a touch screen to display a soft keyboard. The processor may be configured to detect a touch within a touch-sensitive area within a first soft key of the soft keyboard, detect a keystroke corresponding to a second soft key of the soft keyboard, determine whether the second soft key is a backspace key, detect a keystroke corresponding to a third soft key of the soft keyboard when the processor determines that the second soft key is the backspace key, and adjust the touch-sensitive area when the processor determines that the first soft key neighbors the third soft key.
