The stock Evo keyboard is great but i only like Better KB with the iphone skin because it gives some space between letters similar to the iphone keyboard

Re: Keyboards

If you install the swype keyboard, can you choose to switch between swype and the default htc one?

Re: Keyboards

I walked in to a Sprint store yesterday evening and gave the device a go. I do lots of data entry (Excel and HanDBase) and came away frustrated with the "accuracy" of the on-screen keyboard. I found the accuracy increased with it in the landscape mode, but frankly, it is far from perfect. After that demo I decided not to purchase it for now.
