Why do people like using Swype? It seems more complicated than useful. - Page 10

I am very fast on Swype. I love it, I have gone to fast on the beta's and caused it to force close LOL! (On an Android phone that is). I found it not as fun or responsive on my TP2.

no don't worry, swype is working on the official version so i can wait. SlideIt keyboard is in the marketplace and its basically the same thing. honestly i'm not a fan of swype but i can't hate on it as i saw the guy break the world record, so it must be faster.

Why are we talking about Swype again in the Swype thread? It was more interesting when this was the texting and driving holy war.

Is there an XVGA version (whatever 480x320 is) of Swype for Android? I'm guessing there is a Swype for Android judging by the SwypeReference at 4 Shared. Something that is free would be good (free is always good

).

No need to bring up texting and driving again. If this is kept up, it's going to turn into a way OT thread.

I'm gonna go download the trial of SlideIT. I watched the video on their home page. Looks just like Swype if you ask me. Looks difficult. I don't know . is it just me or does watching that video make it seem like it takes forever to type out words?

But Freeza the record is 35.54 typing out "“The razor-toothed piranhas of the genera Serrasalmus and Pygocentrus are the most ferocious freshwater fish in the world. In reality they seldom attack a human"

wow lmao, let me try and type that
