Tried Swype and didn't really like it. Now using Smart keyboard. It's not perfect but I think it is better than the stock keyboard.

[General Questions and Answers] Dogen83:
I really like Swype, but it's got some bad habits. I can't seem to get it to delete the word "weith" (a friend's last name) from its dictionary. It tells me it's deleted the word, but every time I try to spell "with" (which you can imagine happens quite a bit) it defaults to "weith" - doesn't even pop up the dialogue box. It's still ridiculously fast, though... compared to my speed plonking letter-by-letter on the standard Android keyboard.

On a side note, I softbricked my Captivate and had to switch back to a Samsung A707 for a few days until I could get around to picking up the resistors to make a jig. It turns out typing in T9 on a numeric keypad is like riding a bike. Comes right back, never missed a beat.

I keep bouncing back and forth between Swiftkey and Smart Keyboard pro. Swiftkey can be frustrating at times, although with a little more learning, this thing can pretty much do the texting for you.

[General Questions and Answers] Dogen83:
I haven't used SwiftKey in something like a year... is the latest version really worth it? I'm mainly interested in speed and (less so) accuracy. If I'm fast enough I don't need to be as accurate. ;)

Default Sense Keyboard. I'm not sure why but I'm getting bored of Swype and others alike.
[General Questions and Answers] FLAC Vest:
I'm using the new SwiftKey beta right now and love it. The keyboard itself is great and the light skin looks like an htc keyboard which is great.

It takes some use to actually get it to predict what you're saying but if you say a few things a lot it will pick up.

If you type very fast with two thumbs or whatever it might slow you down at first but overall, as a speed texter I love it.

[General Questions and Answers] rogier666:
Started with Swype but stopped using it.

The problem with Swype is that's it totally useless if you're mixing two different languages in a single text. There should be an option to activate multiple languages at the same time.

[General Questions and Answers] kthung:
Currently swiftkey is my favorite. I tried swype beta and I liked it, but I really couldnt get over the fact that no matter how carefully I traced, "yeah" would always autocorrect to "tash". I think if swype started learning which words are actually used more often, I would go back.
[General Questions and Answers] SidDark:
Yeah that is an issue. I've actually gone back to the stock keyboard today and its been a nice experience so far.

Swype also has issues with dodgy words adding themselves to the dictionary and using them by default.

It was getting tedious having to select and remove them from the dictionary all the time.

Since getting my SGS with swype I find I send much more text and emails then ever before. Its very easy to use and you can go as fast or as slow as you like.

On top of that, I love showing it to people and see the expression on there face when they see it working or try it out. Freaks them out :D

Definitely Smart Keyboard. Endlessly customizable. More importantly, I found that on my phone, where the stock keyboard and SwiftKey were simply not that responsive and forced you to type slowly, Smart Keyboard gets the right keys most of the time. Easily Smart Keyboard.
[General Questions and Answers] TreyXV:
I've been using the Gingerbread stock keyboard for a while now. I used to Swype quite a bit, but it would periodically stop working so I've moved away from it. When it worked it was great though, very quick.
[General Questions and Answers] bejahnel:
Swype is amazing, i used swiftkey and it's ok but being able have the option to either lift your finger between letters or not is great, and i think by not having to lift your finger each time allows a quicker response or faster typing
[General Questions and Answers] BananaPhone69:
There really isn't anything that can beat the easy and speed of swype. Sure, some people will find they are faster on a traditional multitouch keyboard, but the majority of people will be faster swypeing. Not to mention it is more "one-hand friendly" then any other keyboard option.

I was using SlideIt and switched over to SwiftKey but found it to be very bugy. Somehow I ended up settling with swype.
[General Questions and Answers] mesasone:
Once I discovered Swype (it came pre-loaded on my Captivate, but it took me a few days to wade through the settings menu and look at the keyboard options), there was no looking back. My only complaint is that I seem to keep losing my settings and custom dictionary when installing ROMs - new or updates. I was super fast and accurate with my first install when I was still using the AT&T ROMs. Seems like there should be a way to back up my Swype settings and dictionary so I don't have to go through but, but I haven't found it yet. It's probably right under my nose.

I'll have to check out Swiftkey and FlexT9 sometime. I have to agree with another poster though - when it comes to my keyboard I'm very much a "if it's not broke, don't fix it!" kind of guy.

[Nexus S Accessories] jerbeck24:
I searched all over the Internet for this answer and came up with nothing so far. Has anyone tried the phantomskinz chromatics for the Nexus S 4G? I see they have the T-Mobile version, but has anyone tried that on the Sprint Nexus S? I used it on my Epic and I loved it, but I don't want to get it it if won't cover my phone right. :confused: If anyone has tried it, please let me know how it fit. Thanks!
[Nexus S Accessories] CONTACTMC:
Would like to know for my i9023 also, why dont these guys put the model numbers instead of just listing stuff as "for nexus s"?
[Nexus S Accessories] jerbeck24:
I do have a message into Phantomskinz about the 4G version, I'll update this thread once I hear back from them. Hopefully someone here has actually tried the Nexus S version they are selling with both of the 4G and the i9023 versions so we can see what it will fit like.

[Nexus S Accessories] ramk13:
Based on specs listed online (checked by others) the Sprint 4G version is 0.3 mm thicker than the TMo version. As far as I can tell, people have been able to use cases interchangeably. (e.g. the incipio feather that people seem to like fits both) I've been reading threads here and at androidcentral for a week or two and I don't recall someone saying they had an accessory that fit one and not the other, but none of this is confirmation for your question.

[Nexus S Accessories] lembowski:
I bought one for my NS4G and it fit alright. The power button didn't line up perfectly. The texture of the carbon fiber was actually more slippery that the stock back in my opinion. I took it off after a few hours of it being on there. :(
[Nexus S Accessories] ramk13:
Same experience. The power button cutout wasn't lined up properly. There is also a little extra material at each of the folds at the corners where the back curves down. I agree that the carbon fiber is more slick than the original cover.

I've left it on for now because it looks ok overall and it's protecting the phone. If something better comes along I might try that. I'll post pictures later if I can.
[Nexus S Accessories] jordant2:
I'm late to the party but bought the carbon fiber skin and it is definitely not made for the NS4G. It has extra at each corner as stated above plus it doesn't cover completely. I don't see myself using this for very long. I wish I had read this sooner.
[G Tablet Accessories] Die Fledermaus:
Okay I have a new mini keyboard / trackpad for to use with the G Tab. It seems to go by multiple names on Amazon officially it is Rii Mini Wireless Keyboard with Touchpad (RT-MWK01)

The keyboard is about the size of a cell phone. Has a backlit keyboard, and uses RF instead of bluetooth and includes a laser pointer. The Amazon description says bluetooth and the company makes a bluetooth version but Amazon is mixing thier like products and the reviews.

When I first received the keyboard I was a bit concerned that I had bought a product that would not work for its intended purpose, though they said it works with multiple flavors of UNIX. So while it was charging I tried other hardware with the keyboard to test all the functions and all worked as expected. I was not optimistic about the RF dongle working but a was pleasantly surprised that the dongle was seen and the keyboard worked as it should have. The trackpad is another matter. when I first tried to use it the function was skewed so that up and down was left and right and left and right was up and down. There is a key combo on the tablet which rotates the tablet function. This corrected the pad and gave the correct alignment. Also the laser pointer does work so now I can amuse my cats and try to be productive.

So the down side, the battery is loose in the unit. Which makes me wonder about the longevity of this keyboard. The amazon reviews have some bad reviews based on build quality. The trackpad is not able to scroll across the full screen. It can only scroll the cross hairs about 2/3 of the screen across the width and just stop. I can find no way to modify this behavior. This is the least of my concerns as this is a tablet so I am not sure I need a track pad.

As I have only had this just over a day I will update the review as I get to use the keyboard more.
[G Tablet Accessories] Exnor:
