Entering Text Using Swype
Swype™ is a new way to enter text on touch screens. Instead of
touching each key, use your finger to trace over each letter of a
word. For each word, place your finger on the first letter and glide
to the subsequent letters, lifting on the last letter.
This example shows how to enter the word "this". Put your finger
down on the "t" and, without lifting, glide it to the "h", then to the
"i", then over to the "s".

Swype Text Entry Tips
Here are a few tips to get you started:
Spacing is automatic: When you finish a word, just lift your finger and
•
start the next word.
Double letters: Just "scribble" on the key.
•
Capitalization: Swype recognizes and capitalizes the first word of
•
sentences. If you want to capitalize a word that is not at the beginning
of a sentence, just glide above the keyboard before gliding over the
next letter.
