Please only post ur question in one thread. I don't know of anything with bigger keys, but auto correction is pretty good. You can do 3 things.

1. Calibrate keyboard.

2. Use compact qwerty or phone keypad.

3. Get shapewriter or swype as its a different setup kind of.

Speaking of keyboards, i have noticed the occasional slightest lag when typing. As you become more proficient with the onscreen keyboard and start typing faster, it becomes more noticeable. I have the cure to this, just turn off both "vibrate when typing" and "sound feedback", and your input will pretty much match your typing pace.

okay, when i did a wipe everything worked... Now i did a nandroid restore because i need to find the easiest way to backup my contacts.. What app or program should i use for that? and i guess ill have to write all of my apps down when doing a wipe also, or is there a way around that?

Nandroid restore will bring everything back...

Titanium backup is good for apps and even keeps them in the store for you. Contacts will come up when you sign into google.

Apps should show up for download when you sign into market with your Google info.
