Newbie's experience of swype

I'm kind of challenged when it comes to typing in touch keypads. On physical keypad what takes 2 minutes to type, in touch it takes me ages! finally a good friend of mine refered to me of trace keypad, but I did not have it in my android. I came across swype website by chance and voila! It is amazingly fast and accurate! What a technology man!
I would request all android users to try beta version of swype. Technologically it is very similar to trace and is fun to type.
