I dont see the major hype for the keyboard either... I rarely ever even slid mine out on my tp2 and I have a 3gs, a nexus and a hero now and I can text as fast on them as I could on the keyboard in landscape mode. Plus android 2.1 has voice to text... which i'd say is generally about 95% or so accurate for me so half of the time I dont even have to use the virtual keyboard.
