Is it ridiculous to like mustard on a hamburger, or to dislike mustard on a hamburger, I forget.
No. Swype wrote the software and offered it to apple. Apple refused it. This was reported years ago.

okay so you're saying it's possible to conceptualize, write, test and release a swype esque add on to iOS in a few hours?

A few things but top of the list includes:
-Inability to answer texts/iMessages without going directly to the Messages app.
-BORING UI. Tired of looking at these stupid rows of icons.
-The screen size.
-Not a fan of the shape at all. I agree with those who say its too long/tall. Needs some width to balance it out.

No I'm saying it is possible to add already written and tested software overnight.
Ok fine I'll go google it for you, hang on... Let's go back a few years:

you're right. I'm sure there's an iOS 7 compatible, fully complete version of swype that can be copy/pasted into the OS.
Bear in mind I was using swype on windows mobile 5, SIX YEARS AGO and it was amazing even then. Now it is mind blowing. Forget it. Go work for Apple you'll be perfect. APPLE THE NEW BLACKBERRY.
I am using "analogy" which is a valid means of making a point. Good luck out there. Signing off.
It's ridiculous to like mustard on a hamburger, but totally be disgusted by a little too much, or slightly not enough mustard on that same hamburger.
It's personal preference, my point being that one likes what one likes, and there's nothing "ridiculous" about that. I might not like "My chemical romance", but someone else can't get enough of them. I don't call them ridiculous. No biggie. Moving along.
I really liked the OS7 reveal at WWDC. A lot. But in practice, I really don't like the whole "garish green on blinding white, with thin fonts and floating text where my buttons used to be" paradigm. It's not just looks. I have difficulty scrolling on the new scrollwheels. I miss taps on the V's and ^'s that used to be buttons in my e-mail program. It's not as usable, looks aside.
I gettcha. But if you loved the iPhone, I don't think iOS 7 is that much different that it would make you stop using iPhone altogether. But hey, you're right. People have different opinions and preferences. In my opinion I think its rediculous. But I actually like iOS 7.
