US Property Market and Swype

Went to a seminar presented by Justin Beeton of JB Global. Justin is a pretty good speaker and he presents his material well. This time he was roadshowing his new investment vehicle, which invests in a listed property trust that tracks the US property market. Based on Warren Buffet's predictions that US property is about to see a revival, JB Global created this product with minimal risk to the investor. It does require about 15% upfront fee. Overall, a good product if you want to park some money for three years.
Today, Swype made their beta available to the general public. It's a fantastic virtual keyboard for mobile devices and I've been waiting a while for it to be available. Much faster than tapping, Swype requires the user to slide their finger over the keys. Takes a little getting used to, but the speed difference makes it worth it.
