Using the Swype Keyboard

Swype™ is a text input method that allows you to enter a word by 

sliding your finger or stylus from letter to letter, lifting your finger 
between words. SWYPE uses error correcting algorithms and a 
language model to predict the next word. SWYPE also includes a 
touch predictive text system.

If you configure another keyboard you must enable SWYPE again 
to use the SWYPE keyboard.

functionality.
