Swype KeyboardAn alternative to the Android virtual keyboard, the Swype virtual keyboard allows you to input text by swiping the finger with one continuous finger or stylus motion across the screen keyboard. Based on testing, speed and accuracy are equal to or better than the traditional keyboard-tapping method. You can activate the Swype keyboard by pressing and holding in a text field, wait for a popup to appear, click Input Method, and then select Swype.
In this sample image, the word "quick" was generated from tracing the path shown above in a fraction of a second, by roughly aiming to pass through the letters of the word. A key advantage to Swype is that there is no need to be very accurate, enabling very rapid text entry.
Loud and Clear with CrystalTalk PLUSWhen you have a conversation using CrystalTalk PLUS, your point comes across clearly. The exclusive Motorola microphone-and-speaker configuration amplifies your voice while it filters out background noise. The addition of a second microphone in CrystalTalk PLUS creates even more resonant voice quality while still providing a superior level of noise filtering. And with Audio Profiles (which match your hearing profile to the phone's audio output) and Noise Adaptive Ringtones (which adjust ring volume based on your environment), you don't have to miss a call or a conversation.
