Keyboard might be the simplest and the fastest device for you to input data, but with small screens on smartphones, using the on screen keyboard can be difficult. Thanks to the new app called 8pen, typing should become faster and easier than before.

8pen is an Android OS app that replaces the standard on screen keyboard, and instead of a QWERTY, you'll use only one dot that responds to the user's finger movement. It's quite simple, since all the letters are divided into four sectors and all that you have to do is to place your finger on the middle of the screen, move your finger into a certain sector and rotate your finger around the black dot in order to toggle between available letters inside that sector. This app works great, and it will surely make typing a lot faster with a lot less errors.

As for the requirements, 8pen app requires Android OS 2.2 or later and it is available on the Android Market for �0.99.
