Thumb Keyboard 4.0 Beta: Public Beta release of Thumb Keyboard 4.0
I don't have my Xoom with me, but Paul, the developer just emailed me about it's release. Multi-touch support is here!!!
From his post:
The new 4.0 version of Thumb Keyboard adds a lot of new features to the already full featured 3.0 version. To name a few:
True Multi-Touch
Correct previous written words with suggestions
Shortcuts - store and edit much written phrases, mail signatures, logins and insert them with a simple tap
New addition to the prediction algorithm: predict a word based on a previous word
Alternative suggestions for voice input. Just tap on the recognized word to see the alternatives
Redesign of the keyboard based on multi-touch chording. Entering numbers and operate the cursor keys was never more easy!
New style popup keyboards. Fling, slide and wipe and back to typing again ..
New design of the keyboard layout. Easier access of much used keys
Better esthetic integration with Honeycomb by the use of Honeycomb style windows
and more
Although Thumb Keyboard is famous because of its flexibility to run optimal on many screen sizes, this beta will currently focus only on the 10.1 " tablets. The release will of course also contain support, like the current market version, for phone size displays and 5 and 7 inch tablet displays.
Suggestion, bug reports etc. can be posted here or send to info.beansoft@gmail.com
