The new 8pen is out! http://goo.gl/v6hXb. And there's a game too: http://goo.gl/Qvpiw
New videos: http://youtu.be/KSPOYzwXJe0?hd=1, http://youtu.be/7-5nm4ZPMqI?hd=1

The 8pen allows for the replacement of the conventional keyboard on all devices capable of detecting gestures, in particular mobile phones with touch screens, modern remote controls or game controllers. Its advantage lies mainly in the fact that it is possible to input text faster than using conventional layouts on small devices, while at the same time mimicking human hand-writing. Moreover, the simplicity of the gestures involved greatly reduces the problem of mistyping that frequently occurs with the classical layout due to the lack of space. For the same reason, it is possible to write without viewing, as only the central region is needed as a reference for starting and ending a movement.

    it has a steep learning curve, but once you get it it becomes pretty easy

    After only one day I've really begun to love using the 8pen, it's sort of like a game and although it'll take a while before I memorize all the letters and become as fast on 8pen as I am on regular qwerty keyboards, I'll certainly have fun learning, especially with the game

    It feels the same as handwriting.

    So that's why I'm terrible with it.
