    Come back and tell us how to write too instead of to with it by swiping....

    lol I've been using SwiftKey for a month or so now and it's great, but I do get the above problem to :(

    Great so now with the apple/android, console/pc, bf/cod, fifa/pro evo, PS3/xbox star wars/star trek wars we can now add swype and swiftkey

    If you're rooted why not install the latest android keyboard ? Very similar to Swype, I've been using that for years, but the next word predictability is great.

    You do a circle around the O, I don't recall having problems with it anyway.

    Fieldrunners 2 just released. If it's ANYTHING like the first one, it's a winner and must have.

    Ah nice one, thanks, nothing better than when a tower defence game gets it absolutely spot-on and fieldrunners was one of the best, well worth €2 for the original still, you'll be missing out if you skip straight to the sequel.

    Defence Grid: The Awakening is still my all time favourite TD games, pc only, would love to see an Android version...

    Is there a difference between swype and swiftkey and the one that comes with the phone (4.2.2) ? I have to say I love the one that comes built in.

    Well the main difference I find is that if you long press a letter you can get various punctuation marks and I think it is laid out a bit better and the prediction rate is better. That's Swiftkey btw.

    I just find it faster and more intuitive to use and there is less going to other menus because the layout is better.

    if it hasn't been said already Plague Inc, is one hell of an addictive game.

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.miniclip.plagueinc&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd

    i've been playing it non-stop for the last week try to unlock all of the extras.

    Just started playing this. Brilliantly addictive. Now all I have to do is wait for my battery to recharge.

    wat da fuq did I just read?

    not sure if it's this site or stock browser, but since upgrading to jb,Swype hasn't worked correctly on my phone.

    problems include not auto spacing between words likethisasn example.
    not auto capitalising words in New sentences.
    can't use the arrows to select text/copy paste etc.

    I've used Swype since getting my first android back in 2010, I've bougt this one from the play store. it is almost enough to make me go back to previous version of android.

    it works as it always did using email/texts etc.

    The tilt ball presses the next word and bounces thus inserts sentences based on the SwiftKey predictions.
