Re: How is the keyboard?
The on screen keyboard is nice, even for my big fingers.
I have been trying to get used to it actually so I can move to phones without slide out physical keyboards since that seems to be the direction everyone is going after the iPhone has come out...
The only shortcoming is the d-pad - since there is no d-pad on the phone, they've put the arrow keys at the bottom of the on-screen keyboard. I find myself tapping the arrows accidentally when I go to hit the space bar instead and so my typing gets inserted somewhere it doesn't belong. But other than that, I find myself just using ABC mode and typing surprisingly fast.
XT9 mode has predictive abilities like you wanted. They're not automatically corrective like the iPhone's, but they do alright I think. They predict corrections to common thumb-typing mistakes as well.
