Ah... no harm done, Chris, I'm guilty of much more major misunderstanding
often enough, myself. Swype replaces the stock keyboard for one that's
Swype-able. Takes a short time getting used to, but it's faster than typing
when on a tiny phone screen, at least for me.
I use voice recognition a lot of time too. Dictate the text. It does
pretty good with my Michigan accent.

I was waiting for this. Voice recognition is far superior to any virtual keyboard, at least in a quiet environment and connected at 4G/LTE or with WiFi. I did a lot of dictating early in my career, and the style of including punctuation has come back fairly easily. Works OK in short pieces on some 3G, too.

I CAN, actually 'touch' type on the Mini keyboard, if I get the angle right, and have a very inexpensive BT keyboard that works with everything I've tried it on.

But my preference is voice recognition.

No jet packs as yet, but I can at least talk usefully at my hand held computer.
