I was going to ask, how difficult it is to have both keyboards so that users can make the choice? The old one, which I also prefer, it still is there, it just needs some minor upgrade I would imagine to work with the newer OS versions. Fact is, after reading lots of comments on this "bug", most opinions were in favor of the old keyboard, the debate was basically between the "perceived" speed and comfort. Not typing too much on the phone I could live with an illusion :)
