Swype, yea, it’s already long long ago since it' released (firstly on Samsung Omnia II), is a input method using line trails on what you sweep on screen. It’s actually a predictive text input method similar to T9 on traditional phones.
It achieved a new Guinness World Record (in touch input) of 34.54 sec with Samsung Omnia II on March 22nd 2010 and improved with Samsung Galaxy S in 25.94 sec on August 22nd (record set with 26 words trial).
How to swype?
Just trail on your desired letters to form a word, and Swype will predict the word what you’re actually to swype, or if Swype is confused, it will show you some word to choose and save it for later usage.
It will produce word “quick” as the trail line passes Q, U, I, C and K.
How to get it?
Actually, not all touch phones are capable to start swyping. It mostly available as OEM or simply pre-installed by the manufacturer. Samsung Omnia II, Samsung Galaxy S, Huawei Comet, Samsung Galaxy Tab, Motorola Droid X, Motorola i1, Motorola CliqXT are the example of phones pre-installed on your phone. Refer to your phone manual to get it.
For Nokia users, a version for Symbian^3 already released on Ovi Store. Check your Ovi Store if you have a Symbian^3 devices. For Symbian^1 devices you can go here.
Video Tips
You may have to watch these videos after installing Swype:
Language Availability
Not all languages are supported, it’s currently available for Danish, Dutch, English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Norwegian, Russian, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese (as stated in Wikipedia). For Nokia users, only English, French, German and Polish currently supported. Other languages will be available soon.
If your language is not available for now, you can still use Swype keyboard for normal use typing. It’s better actually, especially for Nokia phones that the Mini-QWERTY is too small and floaty.

This is the campaign sentence of Swype. So, go get it when you’re available to swype.
