Hey guys, i've been searching around but it seems like the trail went cold on this app. There was some speculation that it would be out May 20th but there's nothing on the interwebs about it. Has anyone heard anything? This is the one app that is seriously making me re-JB my phone.

Thanks!

Hey pkcable, yeah I did the same search you did but all there is are multiple articles from the same couple days that say it will be out around May 20th. After that the information dies off.

yeah the 5-row keyboard is fairly useless. i would imagine there are some people that love it but to me it makes an already cramped keyboard worse. the iPhone keyboard and word prediction are by far the worst i've ever used and this is coming from a guy that had the original blackberry storm.

This looks like a really hard tweak to implement. Could be very useful but I think I'll wait and see how it works out before trying it out myself.

one of a few tweets the dev tweeted yesterday

@kexik

Great progress so far, now I have working Octopus beta but some testers have found several problems which must be fixed before release.

@kexik: Great news! Octopus is finally prepared for release. After the final testing I am going to release it tomorrow. Stay tuned.
