Swype is an application that we have mentioned quite frequently, and with good reason. The method Swype uses to allow text entry on a touchscreen mobile phone is quite simply the best we have ever used. The intuitive user interface is easily learnt, and within minutes the speed at which it is possible to compose a text message is greatly improved.
So far, Swype has been limited to some Samsung devices, and a limited beta trial, and has only been available on devices running the Android OS. Now that has changed, as the guys over at Nokia Beta Labs have announced the limited availability of Swype for S60 5th Edition handsets, which includes the Nokia N97, Nokia N97 Mini, Nokia 5800 and Nokia 5230.
