Now I'm debating myself. It would appear I could probably type faster, and all things considered, I probably used the keyboard "rarely" on my PPC6700. A keyboard is way nice to have, but only because it was the fastest and most reliable way to get text entered. The softkeys on iPhone and Winmo gave me wrong letters too often to be able to get any speed going.

Yea, I went to their website, swypeinc.com. The product seems pretty cool. It's similar to Dasur's SlideIT keyboard, but has a much better interface. I tested out the SlideIT and the software was pretty accurate, even with sloppy gestures. Yet, SlideIT can only be used with a stylus, but Swype can be used with finger, thumb or stylus. However, it isn't available yet. Their still working on Beta version to go with various devices. I'm gonna check it out when it's made available.

If you wanna check out SlideIt, go to mobiletextinput.com.
