If you took Swype away from me, I'd probably sell my EVO. Yeah, it's that good. Tapping the screen to type sux eggs after using Swype.

I've tried Swype a few different times for about 2 weeks each time. I just got to frustrated with it. Maybe I need more time or my fingers are just to big. I type or peck if you call it that pretty damn quick. lol

I uninstalled Swype yesterday anticipating the update, and am going through withdrawal... lol. Is giving me a chance to try out SwiftKey. It's pretty neat. If not for my allegiance to Swype, I might be wooed over. It is pretty fast, too. Great recent update!

Call me old fashioned, but for one-handed typing, I still think T9 is the way to go. It's a lot easier for me to hit the 9 buttons of a touch screen than 26 small ones.

No hands? Google's voice to text input rules is tough to beat!
