Have a look at 8pen too. A different look at text input on Android.

I'll be surprised if the installer works - you still have to sign into it.

Beta's been closed for a while now, unfortunately.

it worked for me - 🙂 & my mate who's got a desire.

If memory serves, you'll need a to copy it onto your sd card & access it via a file manager such as astro, it might be worth having a google around as I installed it about 3 weeks ago & am not quite geeky enough to remember how I did it!!

emailing it now...

Swype does rule. When it comes out for sale I will pay for it.

I just had that (my Swype went titsup.com and I had to reinstall) - left it ten minutes and tried again and it worked.
