ShapeWriter is a new type of Keyboard for Touchscreen devices it is very similar to Swype!
I added a link to the an ShapeWriter Android demo on YouTube!
It is the same on Windows Mobile but i didn't found a video!
It works very well for me and it is a fast way for texting on your
Phone!!

Here is also a link to a Swype video which is not released right now.

It won't crash your phone... If you don't like it just uninstall it!
knight900 is absolutely right it works best with long text such as
emails, notes and SMS it very fast if you pratice a little! You
don't need to use your stylus, and you don't have to be very accurate!!
woooooow...... wtf. .... is it actually easy to use? cause from the vids it looks easy, but when its in ur hand seems like itll be complicated!??
Activation Code????
Why doesn't it work in Opera ? The activation code maybe?

It works also in Opera but it's not very useful for url input. You have just
press cancel when you are asked for the Activation i don't really know whats the handicap of the non activated version. If you need an activation key you have to buy it or look somewhere else! No Warez are alowed on XDA Dev!!
can some one post the screen print
this is a cool keyboard thank you ikkari
xcuse...but for the activation?

Links to a warez site isnt allowd either

When I heard about Swype I was looking for something alike and stumbled upon this gem. It is by far the utmost brilliant keyboard for me yet. Thanks heaps for that.
Is there any chance of further development? I'd love to see this keyboard with german umlauts in order to make full use of it
Thanks again,

HI all;
When I bought the Artemis first time there was an app,like a notepad where I could just draw and save.It was very useful to jot down things very fast without typing.For ex I could use stylus and draw ,there was also a recognition after drawing.So could save a lot of time
But the new ROM's doesnt have it.I tried to find it from the forum.But couldn't find it.Any one knoe it?I also dnt know the name
the latest wm6 roms are using office mobile 2007.
there you will find "one note mobile", which is far better! even touchscreen notebooks are using onenote.

Hi friend;
I know one note.But u can't draw there right?I mean there was a possibility to draw words and save it.After drawing in the menu there was an option to recognize that too.That one is what I am looking for.
Thanks to any one who has it.
Regards
Yes you can - nt got my pda on me but im pretty sure its one of the options when you clikc the arrow next to the keyboard...

HI friend;
Thats a block recognizer option or letter recognizer.I mean is a software where u can write this and save as it is.So next time u can see it more like a picture.U understand?
Regards
Some of the cooked ROMs do not have the handwriting recognition feature, I don't know whether it is missing from the O2 WM6 ROM too, or just from Tom's cooked ROMs.
must have been that, it wasn't hard to stumble upon when i was having a quick play thats why i thought it was there.
Thanks

Yes I know what u mean,Thanks for ur reply.
Its smthing like a ms paint for windows.We can write something using the paint brush and save it as a pic right?
I should have remembered it
I am an idiot
Sorry friends only yesterday did I find that the notes application can be used in the same way to write with stylus on screen.it had to be changed from type to write in the options menu.
Thanks to all those who contributed.
just a note -- if you want BETTER handwriting-type note apps, then maybe you should try out Phatpad. I tried it on my x51v before and the feel of the ink was a heckuva lot better than the default Notes. It can also handle your writing a lot better -- and apparently with Calligrapher (Phatware's version of Transcriber) you can draw in Phatpad and have drawing converted to text quite reliably.
I haven't had the cash to buy the app yet myself, but I might pick it up again one day when I have more cashola.

You should check Multipad.
It is not a freeware but a great proggy I use on a day to day basis.

Another Possibility
Don't forget Pocket Informant - as well as being a very good PIM, it features a Note taking facility on which you can also set alarms...which is nice!
Thanks to all
Thanks every one,I will try out the ones u guys mentioned.

OneNote mobile
Actually, I'm also interested in expanding OneNotes Mobile possibilities in the way regular notes work (to draw a note with pictures and handwriting without recognition and being able to sync it with my desktop version of oneNote)
Do you know any add-ons that can help?

Need a feedback from someone who has tried it!
HAPPY NEW 2008!
looks good
works great
the touch movement is so smooth & light to use....unlike the touch flo with some on the roms
and this seems to be the cab...
working great
Hi dudes, just install it, working great on Trinity. really smooth, amazing stuff, thanks for the great post bro.
yes i think many will be shocked at how good this home cab really is
you guy need to try it....what have you to lose
The directories in the German WM6 version don't match.
For example directory "start menu" is "Startmenü".
The PointUI Software does not find the programs.

I have loaded it on my Trinity running AX3L 3.12. It all seems to be working ok except that the time won't change to 24hr mode and the dialer won't work in the call history. I've tried changing the region etc., it still dials and I get a message from my provider saying that it is not a valid number. If I go to my normal call history in Windows 6, it works as normal.
Also, touch flow doesn't seem to work proplerly outside of the Home environment. I have uninstalled my 1.41 touchflow because it conflicts with the Home app gestures. So now touchflow only works within the Home app.
If I go to Wifi settings, Home takes me to the GSM data connection settings, not Wifi settings. The battery icon at the top doesn't indicate charging, and although I haven't tested Home for very long, it may be a battery eater...too early to tell for sure.
For the first incarnation, this looks very promising.
any problems just sign up to there forum
they are a very helpful bunch of people

Tried!
Works!
Lived 2 minutes.
Uninstalled!
I don't really like the touch things, neither flow not this.
Plus, it hung several times while I tried to set weather location for my city.
Also, I have my Trinity all black, this is nice, but blue.
i hope this will be available in android.. as as 1 of the gui!!... great..
Looks nice but is there any easy way to get into the contacts from this software?
Would be nice if one could change the colour of it too.
Revised version with a little more customization available for download already. these developers do listen!
Version 1.0 had some language issues.
Version 1.01b drained my battery within 1/2 day.
Best "Finger"-Software but not stable on the P3600.
have had it for 2days on my m700 working great very finger friendly battery nothing unusual to speak off the same as always and im using Schaps Wm6 WWE rom which by the way rocks
Great product and for free. Love it!
Definitely worth a donation to keep it free and updated
hi developers and all
i feel not good to start new thread but i thought its what "Blackstone is missing", i searched all around but i guess there is not "as such" finger friendly email application for htc touch hd (e.g sms-chat for sms has being tremendously appreciated) would be great even though its not the necessity of the this amazing device in fact would make it even more complete.
Thanks and many thanks if we could get one asap.
cheers..
Finger friendly email application?
Windows Mobile 6.5 has finger friendly email. However, I haven't really seen another application.

As far as I remember my previously installed 6.5, the implemented e-mail prog does't significantly differ from the 6.1 version regarding finger friendliness. So no need to change your ROM.
I dont think it differs at all. Still feels and looks like 90s

exactly thats the reason why this email interface is really required for blackstone.

that and a text messaging application. manilla goes very deep now compared to its older versions so i wouldnt be surprised if the new version of touch flow 3d comes with this. think how the blackstone shipped with the winmo calendar and contacts and see how the topaz and Rhodium have far better, HTC programs.
I think that way they will integrate with touchflo too, but no one knows how long we could be waiting. Anyone know when the newest HTC devices are being released?

text messaging i compromise as i have changed default path to sms chat from registry but real eager to get on email application.
Anyone installed this and got passed the disclaimer? It installed fine, but after scrolling down the disclaimer and trying to press the accept button it does not go down far enough. Any ideas?

I couldn't get passed that point, either. I would guess the Opera developers are concentrating on touch screens now and don't do much testing on standard devices anymore.
After trying for about 10 minutes to get passed that point, I gave up and deleted the program.
same problem here..
beta version..
bugs..
uninstall..
i dont have the link since im on my phone but one of the developers confirmed that windows mobile standard isnt compatible with the new beta. i would doubt if they ever do.

Maybe they should say that on their download page because they indicate that it IS compatible. It just reinforces my negative opinion of Opera on all platforms.
im using it on my Dash, the only problem is that you need to download FakeCursor so you can accept. After that you made need to use FakeCursor again to goto settings and such, but other than that it works great!

Welcome to forums
If you have a closer look you´ll find several QVGA versions.
Also there are the newest Opera Mini versions, which I find fit better on Excalibur
Tried...it failed....could not click the accept button.....even retried

To me it just isn't worth the trouble to go through just to get it to work. Opera is a has-been by now. Firefox Mobile will be coming out in a bit, and right now UCWEB6 works great, as well as Skyfire. So there just isn't a need for Opera anymore.
Stumbled across this while searching how to put android on my old x51v of all things...
Anyway, this is so far out in front of any other keypad I've used over the last year and 1/2 its not funny. Its responsive, nice big keys for the little diamond screen, T9 works fine. What can I say - finally I've found something for my diamond that just works!
Give it a go see what you think.

Mirror dude?
I'm dont know if i'm missig something but it looks like the keyboard i've been using since I bought the XDA Orbit 2.
I totally agree its by far the best one!
EDIT: Actually, the one from the Memo ROMs is good too. It has the most used puntuation symbols on the "front page" instead of behind "sym"
I never really use key 1.

Dunno how to do a mirror sorry.
Wish all the cooks would use this for their roms. The best thing is the lack of lag. I can type as fast as i can and it keeps up with me unlike the other keypads I've used.
