Hello, is it easy or difficult to do thumb typing on the PRO 12.2? I suppose that we need to use the split keyboard regardless of whether it is from the stock keyboard or from the Switkey's.

I guess it would depend on the size of your hands. I use "Thumb Keyboard" in a split keyboard configuration and have no problems with it, but I have large hands.

Hey saw this on engadget, and was wondering............ since the screen size is the same, when released will it be as simple as transfer apk to evo for multi touch keyboard.
here is the link to the "review" of the droid x with multi touch keyboard and swype keyboard built in
http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/exclusive-motorola-droid-x-preview/
I was just about to ask the same thing. I hope we can, looks like something id like to try!
I was wondering the same thing.
On that note, "Smart Keyboard Pro" on Android Market(not free) also has multi touch enabled keyboard
Its Swype, the guys will probably have it as soon as they get the Apk on their hands.

na thats not the swype keyboard. they said it has swype ANd a multi touch keyboard.
wasnt aware that a keyboard all ready has it...... will check it out
I will be using smart keyboard pro......... But from the looks alone........ the one that comes one Droid X looks better (in my opinion)
Started finally playing with screen density. definitely love e density around 180 (Although may settle for 160 to avoid too many market issues)
That said as many probably have experienced using the keyboard becomes a pain (Yes I got accustomed to the big keyboard !)
Anybody knows of a keyboard bg enough that would fit nicely once shrunk to 160 / 180 screen density ?
Possibly the keyboard from a higher definition Tab could work I guess...
Anybody has tried? (Or has developed his own?)
have you tried Swiftkey X tablet keyboard or Thumb Keyboard??
I am on 192 dpi right now which is equal to 1280x750p unfortunately for me I need 1280x800p for a perfect fit .. but LCD Resolution Root doesnt support it i will try 180 or less to see how it goes.

Thanks in the end I picked Thumb Keyboard
Its quite good, although I definitely do more mistyping tan with Samsung's keyboard (Maybe just a question of training...)
i'm using SwiftKey and turned on big keys in the setting. before i tried hacker's Keyboard which also was handy and comfortable. as you said it's mainly a question of getting used to it.

Best ever seen, many dict available etc ... : MultiLing Fits nicely to any density/screensize. Have used it on ZTE Blade and on SGT P1000, currently 182 dpi

Its a regional rebrand of the softtouch s1
Its an nfc keyboard. Its litte bit squishy but far supperior to any other pocketabke keyboard i have tried so far its split in the middle (Nfc to connect with the device) works like a charm, only wish my note had nfc. this post is one of the first things I have written with this but allready i can type faster then the allready fast on-screen keyboard.
it is missing a dedicated numbers row but all the android specific keys work like a charm. One2touch.no is the website of these guys.
as i live in norway i am quite limited when it comes to the selection of keyboards supporting local characters.

interesting concept.. how no battery needed?
not quite sure how it works...
Hi
Does anyone know if there's a new phone (or will be) with a hardware QWERTY keyboard? (Slide)
Not sure about new ones, but if I were you I'd consider a bluetooth one - that way you can get any phone and just connect the keyboard when you need it and not be limited.
The ones out now are kind of second-rate. Check out the search features on sites like GSM Arena to see what's out there.
I originally wanted a phone with physical keyboard, but with SwiftKey I think I actually type faster onscreen.

Hi All,
I currently have an ipad mini which is perfect for Hearthstone and Netflix for which I am currently mostly using it. However I am seriously thinking to buy a K1 in case as an addition to the above it could be used as an “office” machine. Let me explain what I meant.
I would like to buy the stylus beside the tablet and use the tablet in the office as my primary note taking device and throw away my paper based notepads. Ideally I would use Onenote which is supported by my company so all my notes would sync to my notes on my company laptop.
Does anyone has experience using the stylus on a daily basis in a similar situation?
I also heard that that HP slate 7 extreme stylus is better for writing than the nvidia stylus. Can anyone confirm this?
Thank you
mad
The shield stylus works very well I use it all the time. I don't have any issues with it. It's extremely helpful that you can turn finger touches off so that you can rest your palm while you write.

Hi.
Thank you for your answer. Do you have the new tablet (K1) or the old?
Thanks
I have the original and my gf has the new one.

I'm not sure that you can turn off finger/hand touches with the K1. I believe I've read that with the K1 shipping without a stylus, that this feature was removed. Again, I'm not 100% sure of this, but I want OP to know this before purchase, so he/she can verify with certainty. Maybe someone with K1 and stylus can give a definitive answer.

Hi. Good point. Probably ou2mane could try it on his girlfriends tablet. If you dont mind
@ OP: I use my K1 mainly for note taking, drawing, reading and Plex atm.
Also check out Squid that comes pre-installed by default on the K1. Perfect for taking notes. You can even set the DirectStylus as your default tool and you finger for other actions, i.e:
The k1 doesn't have the ability to turn off the screen touches with the stylus.. At least I couldn't find out how to turn the menu on, but it does let me put my palm on it and it doesn't record touches while using my shield's stylus.
