Just kidding.

I just installed TouchPal and I think it is pretty cool. I'm going to give it a try. So far I really like it!!! Although it sucks in landscape.

Re: Small Rant...Who's With Me?
I haven't found one yet that looks good in landscape....I think if one was developed the fat-finger issue would be a lot better!! stretching the keyboard out the full width of the Omnia would give a lot of typing space!!

Have you tried TouchPal? It's really good. You might want to give it a try. It's really good. Very advanced...

TouchPal's vendor is well aware of the issue with the Omnia in landscape mode. They've stated they are working on a fix.

I never thought I'd get used to TouchPal but after a couple weeks now it's hard to remember what it was like before using it. Portrait mode is just fine due to the layout not requiring the extra space landscape provides. However, I still await the landscape fix.

I purchased TouchPal prior to my Omnia, so I think if they get a wider landscape keyset going, I will re-install and use that one.

Re: Small Rant...Who's With Me?
Quick question about touchpal (off topic), but on mine it seems to be slow and unresponsive. I had a simiular problem with the standard keyboards until i turned off predictive text or something like that. Is there a setting to make it react quicker?

I installed SPB keyboard on mine a day or two after I got it.
Works pretty good, not perfect, but not bad.
It is a lot better then the Samsung one.

I tried SPB and it is a very good one, it just had a slight conflict with my CM app (PocketCM) so I started using RESCO...pretty close to SPB in looks/function!!

Yeah. In the settings check the disable advanced animations, uncheck the enable sound effect. should speed it up a bunch.
