I have used swype to text with my non dominant hand, swaying back and forth in the subway with full accuracy. Without it I honestly feel like I don't have a keyboard installed.
I keep waiting for it to exit beta and show up in the market. This acquisition, while good for Swype, makes me feel like that is just not going to happen. I expect licenses and bundling with phones. I hope I'm wrong.
- spacemanaki 15y agoIn the best way possible, I hope you're wrong too. But that's clearly where the money is, and from this FAQ it sounds like there are some technical pains-in-the-asses with developing and supporting an app like this, which I can certainly understand: http://beta.swype.com/android/faq/ http://beta.swype.com/android/faq/
- ConstantineXVI 15y agoNuance already sells a Swype like keyboard in the Market as FlexT9, bundling is not their only business model. PS: what you describe is precisely Swype's business model.
- Adaptive 15y agoIt is one part of their business model but there is also a pretty extensive consumer direct beta program that I'm still part of.
