Clive Kushler has launched a new text technology for touch screen gadgets. Previously one had to press each letter but his new “Swype” allows crossing over the touch screen from one letter to another without raising the finger or stylus from the screen till the end of the word. Imagine how easy it would be when you don’t have to cross all the letters and Swype guesses the word just as T9 would. Swype amazes you with its speed when compared to working over the PC keyboard.

This technology is integrated with many special features like automatic insertion of spaces between words, correction of errors, shortcut for writing with a capital letter, auto correction of letters with diacritics through the dictionary as well as advanced functions for text formatting. Swype is also designed to be used on any device, which has a touch screen, be it cellphones, tablets or the monitors. It only recognizes limited languages like German and Spanish yet. One has to wait and watch if things are going to improve and if Swype would replace T9 or other text input methods.
