Thanks for all that, if you need my email, let me know!
1. Regarding registry edits- that is not true. I was very leery of changing the registry at first as well. But there are simple registry "tweaks" that are helpful and are definitely not going to "brick" your phone. For instance: who wants to get a message every time they send a text telling them they just sent a text? I know i just sent a text- I sent it! There is a simple change you can make to your registry so you don't get that message any more.

2. SipChange- ok after you get your phone and install the keyboard of your choice- you can install SipChange so that you can make that keyboard your default keyboard. Here's a couple of things I will point out and then you can decide; a lot of people report that when they use SIPChange, they get an annoying white crash screen when they boot their phone. So you will have to decide if you get that screen which is more annoying- every time you open your keyboard changing from the default to the one you want, or the white screen (if you get it) at boot up.

****IMPORTANT**** after you install SIPChange and you open it and select the keyboard you want as default- make sure to set the "Initial Delay" to 60 (that is 60 seconds). I have heard that 40-50 is fine but i used 60 just to be sure. if you do not adjust the delay time the app will not just give you a crash screen- but it will indeed crash.

If you want to post your email- that's up to you- it may be helpful. I will try and get back here and post more stuff that i think is helpful and can probably upload most stuff to here (depending on the file size).
