$scope.apply error when backspacing chosen place

[ghoward500]

After I choose a prediction from the list, if I go to the end of the text in the input and hold down backspace to erase the text in the input field there is an error thrown for $scope.apply as it is removing text:

It happens every time I test it and does not seem random.

Let me know if you need additional information. Thanks for the module, it has been working great other than this slight issue!

following #47 I fixed this by modifying in line 192 "$scope.$apply(..." with $timeout. This worked for me..

Turned it into a pull request: #75
