Today I downloaded an app called Congress
What this app does is, based on your location displays your Senator and Congressman's contact information and profile. Also you can click on your reps and see bills they sponsored. Or you can just search for bills or just see what has been voted on recently, also you can see how each rep voted. You can also read the text of the bills in the app as well.
Pretty cool app.

I'm not sure how I texted pre-Swype, this is amazing technology.

I like that one as well. Has video from the floor for your local reps and plenty of information on bills passed and up for vote.

Just downlaoded SWYPE, seems like it will help a lot. However, I wish they had the microphone as a key so i could still inur via voice.

What is swype? I'm waiting for the droid x in a few weeks to get my first smart phone so I'm not up on all this stuff. What's the difference in swype and just regular old touch key pad on the droid?

WidgetLocker - Customizable lock screen widget 
- When you get an alert all you do is wake your phone and you can have you messages there(i have the Pure Messenger there), you can scroll through and reply without having to unlock the phone and go to the app. Also nice just to see what it is, even if you don't want to reply.
Pure Messenger - Allows you to have all your messages(email, texts, twitter, facespace) in one scrollable widget.

Nice to have SWYPE back. I do wish it had a mic key. I have starting using voice text more and more. I can't believe how accurate it is.

Agreed, getting rid of that was kinda gay. On my droid, you can hit the menu key and select "Speak" and it allows you to use the voice feature though.

Awesome thanks

As much as I love Swype, the lack of a microphone key is a pretty big annoyance. There also seems to be no key to close the keyboard.Edit: I just saw the tip about 'Speak' being in the menu. That's a big help.

The back button closes the keyboard.

Google Voice is open to everyone starting today. No more need for invites.

That would be great. I don't see it in the market yet though.

I just got the email. Would be cool if they let you listen to mlb games.

It's not a Market app. You have to go to the Sirius XM site to DL it. Make sure you change your settings to allow non-Market apps.

I got it now. Looks good. Any idea what it cost to as this to a subscription? Can you get it as a stand alone?
Frank Drebin
Footballguy
No idea as i can't get my email and password to work with it. I've tried calling Sirius twice and been on hold for 15 minutes plus and got disconnected.

Is this listed as Swype on Sprint? I searched my market and came up with nothing.

IIRC, $3 additional to an existing subscription.

Now why the hell does this have to be so freaking complicated?! Why won't my phone allow this install (and I've already enabled non-network apps)? This is so frustrating.

Does your phone come standard with a previous version of swype?

Footballguy
Can you give us details of where you are getting hung up at?I know I had to uninstall the installer and manually delete everything Swype from my phone and start over. It worked then.

I am most likely headed this direction, especially after SIRIUS raised prices without alerting me AGAIN.I think going with just the app would be about $100 a year, and that comes with the internet radio.

Swype in action. Mandatory app for all Android users imo.

Not sure I can ever go back to normal keyboard on a phone, Swype is truly a game changer.
