Awesome, great info!
Thanks for that and your congratulatory words guys.
Congrats!!!
swype is sweet but i like the stock keyboard better for some reason, on my android phone i used to have i love using swype but on tablets not so fond lol!
Congrats on the purchase! (or should we call it a gift from Sony? )
The Xperia phones have a Swype-like keyboard, and I can see how that makes sense on a small device, but isn't it cumbersome on a large screen?
I'm using SwiftKeyX on my Tablet S, and it's pretty cool with its split-out design. I'm still getting used to it, but my typing speed isn't bad at all (although I miss the tactile response of the hardware keyboards).

Give me your iPad 2 and I will buy you an Android tablet!!!!
Jokes aside, my suggestion is to give iOS a chance.
It may be different to Android but you might appreciate the new experience.

Still, its amazing, just the amount of apps compared to android, and although I can't say much about the openness of the software, I can say that apple has mastered its software, as in no lags at all, even on stock rom, untouched.
Saying this cos my sister just got an ipad2 and I got to play with it haha

Agreed, the Transformer is a Beast.
Android is the greatest for open source goodness and customization, but Ipad is a no nonsense affair, and fantastic in its own right.

If you didnt know.. There is a sale on the market . Ever day there are 10 apps for 10 cents each.
Today there is "swipe it" and "HD widgets" on there .
They are both awesome apps and well worth the $.10
Get them before they go back to full price!

It's an awesome event that Google is doing! Only downside I have seen alot of "repeat" apps so to speak. This is the 3rd of 4th time I've BW on the market for $.10.
Yeah they have the ad up on the main page of the market. I have done a couple and I agree there are repeats!!

Ya the repeats defeat the purpose kinda.. I have purchased almost all the apps so far. Can't beat the price lol.

SwiftKey x. That's all.

Does Swift Key X support a Swype-style method of input?
I really like the theming and appearance of the Swift Key X keyboard, but I've been spoiled by Swype's ease of use.
i downloaded that paper camera, its pretty slick . makes neat facebook pictures lol
They're trying hard to sell some if these lol.

Bummer. I installed it anyway on a whim, and and I absolutely LOVE the blue skin.
Gotta have my Swype now though. Even Trace doesn't cut it anymore.
This new launcher coming out looks like it'll be awesome on the Note:

Looks nice
apparently its launching 2/29! Ill definitely be giving this a try on my note and possibly my touchpad
I want this!!!

Looks rockin, but appears it may have a big learning curve. Looks like it has a crap ton of interactions. Can't wait to try that.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
that's awesome looking, it has a retarded amount of features and ways to modify the layout, it's gonna be a sick launcher.
This is gonna blow my mind on the Note. Thanks for sharing.
I watched videos of this UI 2 yrs ago before Blackberry bought the company, Tat UI I think. Guess the BB deal fell thru??
Yea i saw this a while ago it looks cool though
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Thanks for the heads up, I'm really looking for a launcher to do separate portrait and landscape modes, I've heard of Sweeter Home 2 or ssLauncher, but really was hoping for a well know launcher to support this, any ideas?
Has anyone seen this thing work as a launcher? The video showed lots of set up stuff. With all the features and animation it might be laggy. I guess we'll see next week.
This is good code, wish it was out now. Will definately purchase.

on the 29th of this month
i bet this will be a huge battery intensive launcher although I do admit it does look pretty cool.
So the website is down now. Maybe to prepare for the launch?
Yeah, website not working for launch day. Oh well. Nothing really new but this launcher sure gives you everything in one package. Wow! It would be nice to take a look at it.
it will not come out until tonight stated on their blog so that might be this afternoon for us!
It's up for sale. $16.80!!!!
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tsf.shell
yeah I dont know if I will be spending that on this... it has to be more resource intensive than the standard TWLauncher. if not I would be surprised.....
Which is better? SwiftKey 3 Beta or SwiftKey X? The beta is free and SwiftKey X is $2.99 on the Play Store
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
I have both and X has more options but beta has better predictive text and it looks better.

The predictive text is the reason I use it. So in that case for me, their really isn't any reason to pay for the one on the Play Store
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
I have X but been using Beta instead, one thing I don't like about the beta is that they took out the ? key and put it under periods key. Other then that, keyboard have been awesome, like if you type few words together without spacing, it will show up in the suggestion box and space those words out for you.
I always miss typing the space in X so I really like that feature in the Beta. I got X for free from the Amazon Store, but I read that if you bought X from Google SwiftKey will give you 3 when it's out of beta.
Word of warning, if you don't want to pay, don't use the beta because you'll fall in love with it and have to buy it when it's out of beta. It won't be free forever.

good to know X is getting the upgrade when it comes out, I pay mine for $ 0.10 only when google was having a sale and Yea thats true hahahaha once you use it you'll fall in love with it~ but I'm sure it's worth the money, you own't regret getting it.
For me I always type the space, but stupid phone always go unresponsive from time to time so none of the space got inputted.
Any update on if you guys love SwiftKey or Swype more? Or perhaps another great keyboard?

Depends on how your typing preference is, if you like swiping along the words or just like typing normally. Just get something you're comfortable with using.

+1 correct. Agreed.

Has anyone tried using them together? If so did they play nicely? I really like some of the features of GoLauncher, but on stock it seemed to slow my phone down quite a bit. Thinking about giving it another go, but decided I would see if anyone else has first.
GoLauncher (and all Go apps) are really bloated now, which is unfortunate because I used to love their SMS app and launcher. If it was laggy for you on stock it probably won't be much better on Beans. I would look into Nova.
I agree with the guy above. I would never use another "GO" product again. if you install any of them it also installs dozens of adds and click through links to the other products. Also it will just seem to make your phone come to a crawl.
Next launcher is pricey but its really nice. And the updates come faster then ROM updates. Great support and a lot of free themes now

I had never heard of it before but it looks really nice!
$15.99 is a bit of a steep price tag for a launcher but if it exceeds at what it does and isn't filled with bloat I'd say its worth it.

I took a look at Next Launcher, and its made by the "Go Launcher dev team"
It looks like it is not too bloated yet, but I 100% guarantee that it will be soon enough.
Check it out if you like, it is $15.99 tho!

Yeah its pricey but they have easily put in at least that much work into the launcher so far. Disliked it when it came out but man oh man has it improved. I've uses their free services for years. They earned that price tag IMO.
