I'm in virtual keyboard limbo waiting for the swype team to allow me to put the beta version on my new insurance phone.

i'm a text addict so while i'm waiting i'm trying SHAPE WRITER & SLIDE IT.

SLIDE IT is clearly the winner but...


SLIDE IT QUESTION

how do you move the cursor like in swype?


**********************************


UPDATE: can't use slideit in all text fields- absolute insanity (why would i not have access to all features at all times?)

Haven't used SlideIt in a while, but I believe that you go to the 12@ key on the lower left part of the keyboard and click it. On the number keyboard, there are arrow keys that allow you to move the cursor, under the 7,8 and 9 numbers.

Not working for me either, installed fine and it comes up fine but it's not typing the words I am swyping, makes the sounds and acts like it wants to but then wont.

Don't disable android keyboard in settings. I did and Swype would not work. Be sure to hold down on the empty space at the bottom of the text message and choose 'input method'. Choose Swype. Restart if this still doesn't help you get words out of the app.

A dumb question from a newbie...I want to try Swype beta. I am not rooted...Can I download that to the SD card? If so, where, and then what the heck do I do?

Thank you...
