what keyboards are u guys using?

I am using Swype and love it, but I will be trying Droid X or Swiftkey soon. Swype is getting kind of "dumb" ... I think it is learning too many mistakes.

One thing about swype that irks the crap out of me ... it pops up windows sometimes to tell you about a learned word that you might want to delete... but doesn't give you the option to immeidately delete that word from that screen.
 
using swype and loving it, fast and fun also awesome one handed text entry and as and an added bonus it blows people away when i show them.
 
Currently using Droid Does - Red Themed Swype; Also Droid X which is also good. Only using the Swype now for about 24 hrs, hard for me to get used to texting this way.

Nothing but Swype from now on. Can't imagine not using it. It is simply outstanding. It makes typing so much easier, if you can even call it typing.
 
Shapewriter all the way!

I have tried a bunch of keyboards (including Swype) and even bought Smart Keyboard (which is my #2), but Shapewriter is so far my favorite. I found Shapewriter a lot more forgiving and prefer how the 'alternate word choice' list is displayed.

Question for the Swype lovers:
Have you tried Shapewriter? If yes, what about Swype do you prefer?
 
I have been using Better Keyboard since I had my Hero. I like it because of the voice inout, You can also change skins for the keyboard. These skins also include HD skins. i have never been happier.
 
Swype! Revolutionary! Would never go back to typing two handed on some crappy virtual keyboard again when I can swype it out one-handed in a flash without looking at the screen. Hate typing on touch-only keyboards so this was huge. Now have to find Shapewriter and try it since so many think it's better.
 
Right now, I'm using the Droid X keyboard...the key spacing and multi-touch really works well. Swiftkey is very predictable, but I have a hard time with the key size in portrait mode...so it's in reserve. And Shapewriter...I love this keyboard! However, with the humidity here in Kansas City, using this keyboard can be a pain in the ass. So, that's when I'll switch over to the Droid X keyboard. Frankly, I just love the many choices we have...go Android!

I'm back to stock but bounce from that to the Droid x one. I just wish the droid x one had the numbers above the letters. it would be perfect keyboard. I can fly on that thing. Hopefully someone will find a way to fix or alter that. I have to say, its nice to have options.

How can you "fly" on the droid x? i am having major difficulty. i text and my words are a jumbles mess of letters. How do I fix this? i have it set to auto correct and such, but I still have to touch each key precisely for the words to be right. HELP!!
