have you guys tried "hacker keyboard" on android?
its the best keyboard i found so far... in portrait mode its pretty much the standard keyboard, but in landscape you get a full keyboard layout, everything!
you can customize the size of the keys, you can customize how long the phone vibrates once you hit a hit, so tactile feedback is awesome...
AND, i emailed the developer and he added a neat feature i recommended, you can customize the top row of icons/keys and make it whatever you want... and you can scroll through the top row by dragging it left and right
i added special characters to the top row that i use frequently, mostly for smileys hahah...
works great for me!
now if only i could truly customize the keyboard, add keys, remove keys, reprogram keys...
btw, what really psses me off is that whenever i enable my bluetooth keyboard, samsung forces me to switch back to the crappy default keyboard!
argh! i can then manually switch back to any custom keyboard and it works fine... i dont even get why samsung has this weird limitation built in, whats the point? sigh...
