1. A handheld computing device, comprising:
- a processor programmed for learning user action predictors by monitoring and recording both of cues describing the device environment and user performed actions of configuring the device and operating its application programs; and
in response to occurrence of one or more of said learned user action predictors, said processor performing any of configuring said device in anticipation of said user action, causing said device carry out a next user action, and prioritizing certain interpretations of inherently ambiguous user-entered text input.

Abstract
An operating sequence for a handheld computing device manages the device to automatically detect cues describing the device'"'"'s environmental and user actions performed with the device, learn which cues and cue combinations are relevant to predict user actions, and then in response to occurrence of the relevant cues, predictively implementing the appropriate user action or configuring the device in anticipation of user action.
