Swype will allow the 's to be put on by just going from the apostrophe to the s key and it will automatically add it to the end of the word.

Also at the end of sentences you just swipe from the z key to the space and it puts in an exclamation automatically. works with comma, period, and question mark... to me its those few things that just put swype a little bit over flext9.

Granted, flext9 has like 4 ways to input text which is cool. It's just I have been using swype for so long it's at where i want it to be. Swype is designed to be used for a long period of time and swype learns which words you use the most so when I trace a word it will put the most used word down which is most likely the one I want. Don't know if flext9 is the same but I don't wanna go through all that again.

Only thing that sucks about both is you can't delete words already programmed into the dictionary already. I mean there are some weird words in Swype I just wonder "Does anyone really use Hullo instead of hello" or something like that.

Also, I just found this
YouTube - Swype Tips: Word Addition

Now that makes since and I understand why you like swype. I remember that option was available for Swype. The one thing I don't like about swype that all others (shapewriter, flext9, etc) seem to do, and that is with Swype to type in a word with double letters like "look" you have to circle over the letter "o". The others do not... I have tried to go back to swype and used it on my wife's epic but I had lost the feel for it.

that is pretty cool video for the swypeing folks out there...
