Looks like SwiftKey is out of Alpha and headed to the Android Market

Just got an email from them..
Dear Alpha Testers,
Exciting news! We are about to launch SwiftKey Beta on the Android
Market, and you are the first to know
Please UNINSTALL your current version of SwiftKey and head over to the
Market to download the official Beta -- search for "swiftkey".
Also, have a look at our new website at www.swiftkey.net. We are in
the process of upgrading our support framework and look forward to
hearing from you soon.
It has been a pleasure working with you during the Alpha phase. We
will keep you posted on developments here at TouchType through our
newsletter and please do let your friends/colleagues know about
SwiftKey!
Many thanks,
Ben

curious to see if this is as fast as Swype is...not likely, but worth a try
EDIT:
Just installed, it seems really cool..I'll have to unlearn Swype for a day or two to really know, but the word prediction feature is stunningly accurate!!

I can't remember; is SwiftKey a tap-to-type or a Swype-like keyboard? I got that email too, but I've never used it.

its tap to type, but it predicts the word you are going to type, so you never have to type an entire word...very cool predictive tech..

Red rocks wallpaper

I really miss the red rocks wallpaper from my former mytouch4g. Can anyone point the way of how I can extract it from a rom or link me a valid link to the full wallpaper? I looked around redrocks.apk. and tried other places but I can't find the wallpaper and the links I've seen online have all expired

Answer
I can't post external links yet, but search using Google for "RedRocks_homescreen" and the first two results will have it.
It's a good one, enjoy!

Geezus, are you just too damn lazy to Google search red rock wallpaper?

Thanks for the rancor in your reply... sheesh. I did look with Google and I specifically said that the ones it did pull up had expired links to the file. I didn't try it with the underscore so thank you to the other poster. I will try that. To the other guy, no need to act like a tool and be so rude.

This worked great, thanks. I still prefer the feel of the Gingerbread keyboard and the prediction of SwiftKey... I haven't been able to find a keyboard that I really like.

Posting of Swype apk files is not allowed, so I'm closing the thread.

Try out Swiftkey 2 Beta

Just saw on Android Central and thought it might be worth sharing that Swiftkey is opening up VIP access for the day which will allow downloading of their Swiftkey 2 Beta keyboard. Just go to the link below and click on register, use the promo code #swiftkeyFRIDAY
http://swiftkey.net/vip/index.php?sid=363897a84c55bc1de19460f619840b65
Once you register you can then download it in the forums(link below). I tried it out and best keyboard I've used so far.

Thanks for the tip! Using it now.

What is new from Beta 1?

I actually prefer the stock HTC keyboard to any other one out there.

Thanks, will do.

It doesn't seem to have predictive capabilities when used in the HTC email application, which is a shame because the predictive capabilities of SwiftKey are awesome.
The backspace-delete key is buggy when used in quickoffice. Hope they fix these bugs 'cause I love this keyboard.
The previous version did not allow you to see what you were typing when used in landscape HTC email on the ThunderBolt. That has now been fixed.
Thanks, Robertus.

Thank you! This looks like something I'll definitely have to try out.

I love Swiftkey. I've been using it since their first Beta last year. I'll have to give this a go, thanks!

SwiftKey is the best keyboard i've used.

Its asking me for a invite code, I used the promo code and did not work

The invite code was only valid for Friday 5/20

Awesome got it!

SOB...this is what I get for not checking XDA 1 day!
Edit: XDA pulls through again and someone has uploaded the APK. See the original post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1088651

The coupon is no longer working. Can someone please provide with a 8 letter code?

[APP]Blacked Out Gingerbread Keyboard[EDT]

This is a EDT themed gingerbread keyboard. Annex1 and I put this together a while back and I thought I would share with you guys. Just download and install like a normal apk.

Nice. Any thoughts on theming Swype for future... oh wait, can't do that (can we?)
Either way, it seems to support the minimalism in a certain ROM I be developing. Very interesting... I'mma gonna pull out my keyboard APK, yours, decompile both, and look at differences in files?

There is 2 or 3 themed Swypes for the revolution. It is possible just a P.I.T.A.

Does swype even work? I tried pushing the apk and lib but it just force closed on me. I have a whole bunch of theme swype boards from my vibrant days.

Didn't the Triumph come with Swype preinstalled? There are two off-brand Swype versions I have, can pm you the links if you want
I tried to add a MyTouch look to the latest version of Swype but failed... Again, I don't know how allowed it is to talk about versions of Swype not already installed on the users' phone, for reasons probably only Swype knows.

Nope. Touch pal, and the stock android keyboard is all we get. Swype doesn't work. I tried many versions. Thanks for the offer, but I only use the gingerbread keyboard.
