I used Swype before Google came with a built in swipe keyboard and both are very good. Unfortunately Swype isn't free. Who wants to try a swipe keyboard without paying for it, I'd advice TouchPal as a free and more light-weight alternative, although my personal opinion is that Swype/Google is slightly better.

In my opinion the beta version of Swype is the best keyboard for Android. It scans (with your permission) sms, email and facebook messages to customize the dictionary - which makes it very accurate.

I'm not sure if Swype actually makes me type faster, but it sure is fun to use. :D
