When you’re getting comfortable in a new neighborhood like iOS, it helps to get the inside scoop from folks who’ve been there a long time. That’s certainly true of TUAW, which has been looking at Apple products since 2004 — three years before the iPhone made its debut! TUAW writer Mel Martin has given Adaptxt a spin and calls it “a winner,” mentioning the “boatload of languages” it supports and that it’s “just as responsive as the Nuance Swype keyboard.” He also notes:
The software generally figures out what you are typing and inserts the correct word. You don’t even need to press the space bar, instead just pausing and going on to the next word. It’s pretty magical.
That’s thanks to our team of wizards — software and language wizards, that is. Mel closes out the post by telling readers they should really be checking out third-party keyboards for iOS. With encouragement like this, just think of what we may be able to do on the iPhone 1000.
