Holy cow, this looks TEDIOUS!!!
I imagine that it could work for newer generations that are just learning to type anyway...but who in the world wants to learn to type all over again?

I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move – it’s in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.

it looks interesting to me and I'd be willing to give it a shot. Thanks for the link. I see how that could be faster and make fewer mistakes.

Just like switching phones, takes some getting used to. I think it looks pretty cool.
I might give it a try when they release it for droid 2.2 since it's just an app.

If you try out a few words based on the second character-layout, it's actually very easy to write with. This might be the app that makes me move to Android.

Now if I could fit an iPad in my pocket I'd be set.

Oh really? Why do you think you'll regret it? I was teetering on the fence on X vs 2, but I ended up getting the 2 for free - so that took care of the decision for me! lol
I really am enjoying it and have found that I only used the physical keyboard the first day or two and then one time since then. I do miss some of the SU like capabilities that I had with my Blackberry, but the overall experience is vastly improved. I may end up rooting the phone in order to regain some of the control I'm used to with Berry, but we will see.
I was with Tmobile for years. I upgraded to the HTC G2 and the hinge dealy felt cheap and I never used the physical keyboard. So I sent it back and switched to verizon. Got the X for 70 bucks and a healthy corporate discount. The X just seems very sluggish. More bloatware. Its got Froyo, but it just doesnt seem as fluid as the G2. Verizon's internet speeds are a lot slower than Tmobiles new HSPA "4g" too.
Switched to an HTC EVO 4G when they first came out, and I absolutely loathe the touchpad as my fat fingers mis-key more than they hit right, and the "prediction" sucks.
I may have to look into Swype or this...or go get something like the Samsung Epic with an actual keyboard...
Faster, faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.

I have the HTC Touch Pro 2 and the QWERTY keyboard is great and pretty big, so never have issues.

For anybody that was interested in this app, it has been updated with a lot of bug fixes and is now free!
