Fuzzy keyboards, to determine a most-likely-to-be-intended keystroke or keystrokes, are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method adds each of one or more keys to each of a current list of key sequence hypotheses, to create a new list of key sequence hypotheses. The method determines a likelihood probability for each hypothesis in the new list, and removes any hypothesis failing to satisfy any of one or more thresholds. The most likely key sequence of the new list may then be displayed. Some embodiments of the invention relate specifically to soft keyboards, while other embodiments relate specifically to real, physical and hard keyboards.
