heard about the new swype keyboard for your motorola droid?  here is how you can install it before it’s actually released!  and trust me, it’s worth it…

the directions:

1.  download and install the astro file manager from the android marketplace
2.  download this zip file.
3.  unzip that file, which will give you a file called “[mfhs]Swype-SwypeReference-WVGA854-trial-release.0.35.3959.apk”
4.  copy the apk file to your handset’s sd card
5.  on your android handset, go to settings > applications > and check the box next to “unknown sources”
6.  use astro to browse for the apk file on your sd card, install it.
7.  go to settings > language and keyboard. enable the swype keyboard.
8.  you should now be able to switch between the standard keyboard and the swype keyboard by tapping-and-holding on any text input field.
9.  and your done.
