over on xda, they posted a lite version of the swype keyboard (they removed the tutorial and help from it to make it ~1mb)... i've been using it for the past week and i've actually enjoyed it. i had the htc keyboard installed and was using it, but now that i've tried the swype one, i haven't gone back. it comes up instantly (the hero VK would lag a little bit sometime) - and the whole typing thing is pretty neat. anyways, wanted to post the link in case anyone else wants to try it.

you install it and then go to locale/text and enable it.
