Swype

Firstly thank you samdroid. Without those brilliant forums, I wouldn't be typing, swyping this. A replacement for the standard android keyboard, which even in its Ginger bread avatar is  above average at best, this one will really change the way you go about typing.

Now in beta stage, once you download their beta installer, you will be asked to download their apk  and you will be taken through a tutorial, which gives useful tips.
. You slide around yours finger over various characters and wait magically for the software to form the word. Simple and intuitive, it takes no longer than a couple of "swypes" to get used to it. Tapping is still allowed but as the tag line goes, why tap? while you can swype...
The focus here is on speed than swyping accuracy. The keyboard software learns your choices and becomes better and better with time.
And the most brilliant part is that it makes typing out a fun activity. Rare. :)
