Is Touchpal what is already on my Touch? If so, then this is better, especially if you want a QWERTY keyboard. I like the QWERTY on this because it makes things like typing unique words or passwords MUCH easier. It also is a bit more intuitive.

Any screenshots of the keyboard?

Here's something I noticed, when using the OEM SMS composer, when I type the name of a contact using the hardware keyboard, it doesn't show the pop-up box with the name/number. Is this happening to anyone else?....=/

Mine showed a pop up where it does the T9 suggestions just above the keyboard. It only showed one name but when you press down on the dpad the next one shows

Thanks, I know that's how it works. I guess I'm just too accustomed to how the stock name finder worked.

UPDATE-So, it kinda works. I have to type in the first character of the first/last name, press "space", then a black bar appears at the bottom of the screen, and I can select it from there. It doesn't seem to show email addresses though. =/ Hmmmm....

i like the the fact that you can change it from t9 to abc with a push of a button but its not as responsive as touchpal so for texting touchpal is for me but for putting in passwords and stuff this keyboard is for thankfully it plays well with others and doesnt shut them down.

"Touch QWERTY" with T9 on while in landscape mode doens't properly work. I thought it would be cool to have the phone closed while the screen is rotated in landscape and use it as a software KB.

Once I figured out it was on Italian language by default, everything was smooth sailing... lol
