Did any of you 'S3 trial users' try Swyping on the Swype keyboard?  I came from BlackBerry, so the typical (i.e., Apple) keyboard was/is horrendous, but I have found the swyping to be awesome.  I don't believe Samsung pushes the Swype keyboard knowledge, so that is why I am asking. 

I use it sometimes. Depends on how big of a word I am spelling. to big and I forget which letter to swipe to next  //LMAO// but it is fast and pretty damn accurate

Sometimes it can even predict what you meant, even if you type something else.  The key is to get the first letter correct and hope you most of the remaining characters correct.  It is frustrating when you (i.e., I) screw up multiple words in the same sentence...then I question if it is worth using.  The voice-to-text is pretty darn good also, but I'm sure Apple can compete in that arena pretty well.

I use voice to text all the time. A little weird having to say "question mark" to get the ? but hey its works. Only if I could by voice, or can I?

the voice to text on my s3 works great, so much better than the iPhone, that I actually use it

No doubt.  Sure beats the heck out of "I'm sorry, I can't take any requests right not".  Or I say (very clearly) "Text Peggy" and Siri says "I can't find Honey in your contact list".

Still diggin' the S4.

Yeah, swipe was the only keyboard I could use. (Fat fingers!) when I took the s4 back the sales guy showed me a $2 app that will make your keyboard just like the iPhone it even makes auto correct work like the iPhone. It wouldn't have changed my mind but it would have made things a little easier in the transition.

Just did the 7 upgrade for the iPhone. A lot different so far.

It's definitely going to take some getting used to!

I just downloaded it too. So far, I'm not liking it.
I may be a little impatient, but all the "cool" transitions and fade-outs when opening apps takes too long, and all the white everywhere when it used to be grey or black uses up your battery life much quicker. I like the old iOS... But it's too late to go back. :/
