What are people's opinions on the Cootek TouchPal vs. the HTC Touch 20-button keyboard?

IMO the TouchPal has all sorts of clever tricks and extra features, but the buttons are just a little bit too small for my taste. I find that I make a lot of mistakes and I often get frustrated.

The Touch keyboard, on the other hand, has much bigger buttons that I can press easily with my thumbs, and since each key has a maximum of 2 letters, I can usually type out things with a single key press per letter (even without predictive input). One of its big disadvantages is that it takes up half the whole screen, but otherwise it's pretty good all-around.

Thoughts?
