Like I said, it's a little weird but it makes me grin when I'm typing.

Re: FingerKeyBoard 2.1 ONLINE NOW ALL VERSIONS!!

I have a question about this KB (& I'm being serious). How the heck can anybody type anything quickly on this setup??

I never use the hardware KB with my TouchPro as I can type insanely fast using TouchPro in portrait using T+. I can type almost as fast with Merdin's awesome black KB using compact qwerty & T9. I get zero lag with those setups (Merdin's 6.5 ROM) & almost no typo's.

I installed & tried out FingerKB for a while because I like the look of it & it has some really cool options, but it slows me down tremendously & I make tens times more typo's with it. What am I doing wrong, I really want to know what the trick is to fast typing on a full qwerty setup in portrait mode???

Re: FingerKeyBoard 2.1 ONLINE NOW ALL VERSIONS!!

I think some people just have better results on certain keyboards than on others. I have tried them all and I like this one. That doesn't mean it's the best for you, it's just the way I type. Also, I rarely type in landscape mode. I thought I would prefer it that way but I usually end up going for it in portrait mode.

Sorry, this isn't much help! I don't have any tricks or tips. If you have great results with T+ or Merdin's (which is a great keyboard) I would just stick with them.

Thanks for your question and yes, I did take it seriously!

Re: FingerKeyBoard 2.1 ONLINE NOW ALL VERSIONS!!

I agree, different "strokes".... I rarely, if ever, use landscape... mostly because I type sucky using any landscape keyboard but spb which takes up the whole screen.
I do, however, type fairly successfully on this keyboard in portrait, no better-no worse than the default... the touchpro I had way too much trouble with.. maybe need new glasses! The selling point for me since all else is about equal is the looks (awesome thanks to the eeniepink!) and the ease of customizing the layout and canned text... which I find I use quite often!

Re: FingerKeyBoard 2.1 ONLINE NOW ALL VERSIONS!!

I never use landscape either (except when I switch to SPB on rare occasions)

I am still wondering what method everyone else is using for typing. I use portrait 99.9% of the time & use both thumbs on either the Merdin compact qwerty or the TouchPal compact qwerty. The TP T+ option (their version of T-9) is amazingly accurate & also allows you to assign a rating to a particular word if you use it a lot so it will pick it first.

How do you guys type using the full qwerty setup in portrait?? Do you use a stylus, do you type with both thumbs etc etc etc???

My son, (who can IM faster than anyone I know) uses a phone keypad & T-9.

Re: FingerKeyBoard 2.1 ONLINE NOW ALL VERSIONS!!

I use both thumbs no t9. But then again I'm not worried about fast just accurate. Sometimes I admit, I'll take out the stylus for quicker more accurate typing.... but again, I'm not so great with any of the keyboards (other than when I had my treo and hard keys).

Same here.

I tried using my thumbs a couple of times in landscape. I did pretty well but it didn't feel right. Plus, I didn't want to look like a "texter".
