I watched this live at Techcrunch50 and I had mixed reactions. First, it is a rather technically interesting way to do text input. Watching how the experienced developer was playing with it, I could sense how it could feel like writing cursive English letters as whole words. For the average user though, I just don't see how it catches on. People are fairly split over whether they prefer phones with traditional button keyboards or if they love the touchscreen interface from the iPhone. I love the iPhone because I hated stencils. I get more screen real estate. Its easier for me to do typing on the iPhone than any other smart phone I ever used. It honestly looked like the demonstrator was scribbling on the screen. I had to look twice a couple of times to make sure it was a live demo and not fake.
