As someone else mentioned, I can't help but wonder why the keyboard is not multitouch enabled. The most common problem I have while thumbing away is one thumb typing a key that is not registered because the other is not off the screen yet.
I've really been trying, but especially in landscape, I still find myself yearning for the TP2 keyboard. It is just such a nice kbd, and with it not on the screen, I can reference the text that I'm responding to.
