As I'm writing this review, I'm actually using the Swype Beta keyboard from my Droid Razor. I have to say it's my favorite keyboard so far.
I used the older Swype for a short period of time, but it simply left something to be desired... It wasn't always super fast, word recognition was mediocre, and the aesthetics were nothing special. After that I moved to the 'hacker's keyboard' in favor of the sleek design and additional keys/features (like the directional arrows on the full keyboard).
Recently I read that Swype had released a new beta version. What initially caught my eye was the Dragon integration for voice recognition/speech to text (for those who don't know what that is, Dragon is a product by Nuance that has been around for ages. They are easily the top company in voice recognition. IPhone's Siri is actually built off of it).
There were a few small hoops that I had to jump through to get the keyboard, as it is not yet available in the market. I had to register for the beta, confirm my email address, download the "beta installer" then use that to actually download/install the keyboard. You'll want to make sure you select the option to allow you phone to install apps from unknown sources (this can be done in the applications manager found in your Android's settings page).

I've tried swype on my phone and not much of what would interest me and I had it for a couple of weeks to try it out but just got to go for something new.
Now I'm currently using dextr keyboard app for several months now. This is an interest and fun app for me. You could download it here.
I think this will take it very interesting and You'll surely love this app.
Unfortunately dextr is not compatible with ICS... Otherwise I might have given it a try. Doesn't seem too highly rated though.
I appreciate the feedback!
