I've tried out the SPB keyboard, worked fine registering my finger taps and I do like it quite a bit. SPB is great in landscape, especially when in full screen mode. Gives me the most room for my meaty thumbs of any of the keyboards. I also found SPB's word completion to be more effective for me than Samsung's XT9 system (hate how XT9 goes ahead and fills in the word it thinks you want automatically...it was getting it wrong more often than not)
Fingerkeyboard is cool, I find myself switching back and forth between it and SPB. Feels like the quickest and most responsive of all the keyboards. Omega, I tried out your skin. Love everything about it except for the issue that was mentioned above- I need a button to minimize the keyboard! I don't want the taskbar always there- with my thumbs I too often was hitting the send button accidentally when going for the z x or c keys. I did find a workaround, the "EN" key held down will switch the keyboard to number mode, and from there there's a minimize button. One last critique- I found myself constantly mixing up the backspace and return keys! Don't get me wrong, nice job on the skin Omega, I 95% love it, just giving you some feedback!
