Really cool text input program that doesnt require a keyboard, some of you may have used it already. It's awkward at first but after that it's really good. It's kind of like predictive text, click and drag towards letters and they will be selected, the next letters appear etc etc

Really amazing software imo _________________  Diablo-X =GCHQ= wrote: you need to improve your jokes, making them funny is crucial,

that's....surprisingly intuitive....you have to knock the speed up a bit, but quite fun

very interesting concept
it's hard to write a word it doesn't recognize though, i wanted to type my name but since it doesn't know the word the right letters wouldn't show up

I stumbled across this a short while back whilst looking for applications for my n95. The idea was quite neat, the n95 has a built in accelerometer and you could essentially just tilt the phone backwards and forwards to type.
I did try it out on the pc though and just couldn't get on with it and found good old typing to be much quicker and simpler.

I'll try that when I get home. Look hard to use on first impressions but I'll reserve judgement for now.
