Heard good things about thumb. I recently changed to the honeycomb stock, the samsung one was just too darn laggy and the auto correct was horrendous.

I am still in the air, but on my phone I use swiftkey - might try it here too next

The stock keyboard works pretty great though. I can fly on it - even as far as two handed near touch typing.

Im using stock Honeycomb. I used the Asus one first of all, thought it was cool with the swipe feature. but it was a bit laggy and i agree with you the auto correct was really bad!

The new version of thumb keyboard rules. It has the option to switch layouts on the keyboard itself. Even a nice one handed option. Also the new version allows for keybinding for quick access to a handful useful shortcuts.

Swiftley has a tablet version in the works, I'll most likely give that a try when its released as their predictive text works very well

SwiftKey to for phones works but it is a bit cramped. Works well for thumb typing but no way you could touch type. Does let me see a lot of the screen though, probably will not use it much as it is kind of tight. I did use it for this post though. Need to get tapatalk on this so I can post the screen shots

I'm using the Asus one, but really miss Swype that's on my EVO. One the Asus kybrd, I have all the settings turned off. I dislike autofill/suggest.

SwiftKey Beta for tablets. Tried Thumb keyboard, but I think I was too used to SwiftKey so I switched back promptly.

Can't seem to find Swiftkey in the market for the Asus transformer. I love they keyboard dock and wouldn't bother with a typing program other then the fact that I don't always take the keyboard with me where ever i go.

So i take it the Thumb keyboard is the best atm?

I have only tried tablet keyboard so far (its free), and for landscape typing with just 2 thumbs (while holding the pad) its great, but some reason does not do the word predictions.

I had swiftkey on my Nexus One for a long while, works great! Put it on my nook color and it FC a lot. Not tried it on TF yet.

mknoolman123 - Thanks! I get mainly 5 and 1 star reviews, seems like I am pretty polarizing LOL. Volume 2 is completely written, just waiting on cover art, pre-readers all report back its better then the first.
