1. An input component to input data in an interactive device, said input component comprising:
- a plurality of input controls, wherein each input control of at least some of the input controls of the plurality of input controls corresponds to a respective vowel of the alphabet and is associated with a set of consonants greater in number than the respective vowel, wherein an initial activation of an input control of the at least some of the input controls followed by a secondary activation of an input control of the at least some of the input controls enters data in the interactive device corresponding to a consonant in said set of consonants; and
a common input control, wherein an initial activation of an input control of the at least some of the input controls corresponding to a respective vowel of the alphabet followed by activation of the common input control enters data in the interactive device corresponding to such respective vowel.
