Hi all, First of all I also have to say great job with 2008.08. I like it a lot.
Then the normal keyboard rant. I don't mind the predictive keyboard at all. As long as 1) I can add languages 2) can choose the word I actually typed. When the predictive kb is on, and I type in english I really like it. Yesterday at the bar when friends were taynting "ooh let's see if you manage to write an sms with openmoko", I whipped out the freerunner, and had a message written in english before the othe guys had their phones out of the pocket. And this was with accuracy - (beer * 4). But when they asked to write something in finnish, I said "ooh, who's ready for anothe beer" and deftly hid the freerunner.
