Swype for the Triumph

It was one of the first things I downloaded as well, but I don't really use it anymore. I just kept making too many mistakes (even with the highest error tolerance setting) and it was a pain having to fix them. Also, the auto spacing made it very difficult to type smileys. (Such as :O or :p)
Currently using the Gingerbread keyboard. Seems to be faster for me than swype--even if I butcher a word it still somehow corrects it.

That's 1 of the issues I have with Swype. Supposedly, it was corrected. People was having issues with the app, the longer you use the worse the accuracy. An update was applied but, for me, it still became problematic the longer I used it.

Still, can't beat it for one hand texting!
