1. A method for a syllabic character entry into a handheld device comprising: drawing a desired base syllabic character using a stylus in a writing area on a syllabic level user interface disposed on the handheld device; determining whether a modifier is needed to the drawn desired base syllabic character, wherein the modifier comprises at least one of a consonant modifier, half consonant modifier and vowel modifier; and if the modifier is needed to the drawn desired base syllabic character, inputting associate data of a desired one of modifiers along with the drawn desired syllabic character to a base syllabic character recognizer by tapping on the desired one of modifiers that are disposed substantially around the writing area of a modifier panel in natural positions with respect to the base syllabic character; clearing the writing area upon tapping on the desired one of the modifiers; producing a candidate syllabic character including the tapped desired one of the modifiers by the base syllabic character recognizer upon recognition of the associated data; and displaying the produced candidate syllabic character using a first contrasting color in a progressive display panel.

The method of claim 1 , in tapping the desired one of the modifiers that is disposed substantially around the writing area of the modifier panel, the modifiers are displayed in their naturally expected positions associated with the drawn base syllabic character to reduce seek time.
