How to Put Swype on Your Android Phone

Swype is the newest and apparently fastest way of typing. You bassically just drag around a line through the letters you want to select and it will ype it for you. here is a demonstration.
If this is appealing to you and you have an android phone i will show you how to have this feature. So first we must start by going to the market and downloading a file manager. Astro File Manager is, in my opinion, the best. Once you have this downloaded on your android phone go to the internet on a computer and download this file http://hotfile.com/dl/71199170/af991ba/swype.v2.4.44.10912.wvga.english.android.apk.html and put it somewhere where you can remember. Now connect your phone to the computer and mount it as a disk drive. Drag the swype file on the the sd card. Then safely remove by putting your phone on charge only. Then on your phone open Astro file manager and find the file you just put on the sd card and select it and install it. Your phone might ask you if it's ok to install apps from unknown sources just say ok. Once this is done go to settings then language and keyboard and select the swype option. Now to use it when you are typing hold down your finger on the input area and select input method and then select swype and WALLAH! You now have swype so now go show it off to all your friends and make them jealous.
