The 8pen™



Quote:
The 8pen™ allows for the replacement of the conventional keyboard on all devices capable of detecting gestures, in particular mobile phones with touch screens, modern remote controls or game controllers. Its advantage lies mainly in the fact that it is possible to input text faster than using conventional layouts on small devices, while at the same time mimicking human hand-writing. Moreover, the simplicity of the gestures involved greatly reduces the problem of mistyping that frequently occurs with the classical layout due to the lack of space. For the same reason, it is possible to write without viewing, as only the central region is needed as a reference for starting and ending a movement.

I "tried" it, and it's not for me. Maybe i'm too impatient, but i dont want to read a tutorial, on how to use a keyboard.
Back to Swype for me..

By the looks of it, it takes some time to get used to.

Some time and some patience probably...

NO,
