Same here Chris I have been testing this for a few days and it is excellent, are you going to post it up in Phone Edition General? It should work on all QVGA devices.

Yep, I've been using it for the past couple of days now too. Can I change my vote......

Waveydavey, are we talking about the Touch Keyboard from HTC. If so, I can't get the full QWERTY staying on screen. It's there but as soon as I open a new document, it switches to 2 letters per key, second from double tap. I've tried changing the options, ie Turn on one-touch entry but it makes no difference on my HTC Touch.

I see this behaviour too, and if I'm honest if you want a full qwerty keyboard the PocketCM one is much better. It's the 2 button one that I'm using now and it's really good.

It's the default behaviour of the SureType keyboard. Where no text box is available, or a password field is shown, the keyboard defaults to the 40-key SIP (I assume it's looking at the field names personally to use some kind of logic). Quite decent IMHO, and I really like the fact that the word completion field moves above the text being inputted into the screen.

I haven't used TouchPal for a bit now!

I use and recommend PocketCM Keyboard, mainly because of the ability to customize. I like the idea of not being boxed into a particular layout. I'm comfortable tweaking available skins and layout files, so I've been able to fine tune the SIP to meet my particular needs (pressing and holding the "j" button, for instance, brings up john0394 for fast input of my username). Also, I'm able to have the symbols I use most appear on the layout...and eliminate the ones I never use. Bottom line, PocketCM has allowed me to significantly steamline my inputting.

It is also my SIP of choice I really do feel comfortable with it. I just can't get on with many of the others, amazingly enough your vote has put it into the lead now!

Is it pretty stable now last time I tried it there were some issue with it missing characters?

I have got into TouchPAL now, it took a while for me to get used to it but it's pretty good now!
