Default New Swype keyboard beta has Dragon integration works great!

I just saw that Swype has a new beta out on Engadget that integrates voice recognition from Dragon. Well, it installs with no problems on the Prime, and the voice recognition component is amazingly accurate. I thought that some of you may want to give it a try, so I posted a new thread.

This entire post was just "typed" with the new Swype voice recognition. It is pretty cool. http://beta.swype.com

I had been using Flex T9 keyboard for a while (made by the group that just purchased Swype), and loved the dragon dictation.

Tried the new beta of Swype yesterday, and it's the best keyboard IMHO for our tablet. I can't go back to regular typing since using swype-based keyboards, and the Swype keyboard allows you to miniaturize the keyboard to make swyping easy in both landscape and portrait mode.

Love it.

Thanks for the link. I am typing to you right now through Dragon dictation. While this does work very well it's hard to choose between this and thumb keyboard. I also have SLIDE It keyboard also. Being able to through and Dragon dictation in does come in handy though I have to admit. I might have to test out which is faster between the 3 that I have. I will try using this swipe for a while and see how it performs. It's going to be hard to choose. Slide it is just as good and is more customizable. I do like how I can shrink the Swype keyboard though. I'm just testing this out now so don't mind me if I sound (write) like a robot right now..lol

Thanks again!

Does this app not work with the Transformer Prime?
I am having difficulties installing the app, the url for downloading the installer states that it is not an android phone.

Does it support tablets? o_O

EDIT:

Found the solution to my problem in the FAQ

I click the link in my activation email to download Swype, but I'm told that my phone is not an Android device, even though it is! What do I do?
