New, potentially innovative keyboard option

Found this over in the r/android forums and it looks pretty interesting:

It drops tomorrow, and only on froyo.

Too radical for me. Luckily, I didn't purchase several days ago when I first checked it out. Once it went free, I gave it a try. Played with it for an hour or two, but much slower for me than either Swype or multi-touch. Too steep of a learning curve.

Another interesting alternative keyboard option is MessagEase. Still a bit of a learning curve, but to me seems a little easier to learn than 8Pen.
