I'm big on the HTC Diamond keyboard.

Works good for finger typing, and my fingers are the size kielbasi so finger navigation is normally difficult for me.

I second the Diamond. I've been through a lot lately trying to get used to an on-screen keyboard.. The Diamond keyboard worked exactly the way I expected. The other keyboards were just too frustrating at time to use.

Update!

I just installed the trial of Resco keyboard pro. It is neat. In the end, I think it comes to personal preference though. To me, one is as easy to hit accurately as the other.

Regarding Resco: You have to hit a button to go to special characters. Comma, period, question mark, etc, are not on the primary keyboard. They are on the HTC Diamond keyboard, however. I don't like having to hit an extra button to get there.

Regarding HTC Diamond: Overall, my preference. However, Resco does have a cleaner look. It's appearance and smoothness is superior to the Diamond keyboard. Still, I need my punctuation.

I will keep Resco for the time being, and periodically check it out, to give each a full swing. However the lack of punctuation being there kinda hurts. I do like the appearance of Resco though.

Wow thanks for posting that Diamond Keyboard. I was so used to typing on my moguls keyboard that I thought I wouldnt be able to handle a touch screen BUT now I am pretty sure that I could handle the screen keyboard of the diamond, although I do wish it was going to be a bigger screen than the moguls.

Guys, try out Touchpal, it just rocks out diamond keyboard, and has way more functionality than any other. Just youtube touch pal and look for a tutorial video... You'll see the awesomeness...
