I know this has been asked many times before, but I'm curious what keyboards people who own the same device I own use. I've tried the stock Motorola multi-touch keyboard, Swype, Swiftkey 3, the stock ICS/JB keyboard, and a few others I can't remember the name of right now.

My favorite is probably the Motorola multi-touch keyboard but lately even that's been bugging me.

What do you guys consider your favorite? I want a new go to keyboard! :)

Huge fan of Swiftkey ... I love the prediction. My wife on the other hand loves Swype. I just can't get into the swipey-style entry, it seems blasphemous from a touch-typist's perspective.

I feel the same way about swype, I can't force myself to "swype" and whenever i use it I try to touch type lol

I have tried that as well, while it works alright I consider it basically the same as the stock ICS/JB keyboard just with bigger keys and themed! The themes are nice though :)

I usually switch back and forth between stock and thumb keyboard depending on the theme I am running. Thumb has TONS of options.

**So ive always held out on adding a donate link because this is just something i do for enjoyment.. but i have received a few requests recently to add one.. so if you enjoy my work and would like to buy me a beer or put some gas in my car, that would be very much appreciated.. but please continue to freely enjoy my mods without any feeling of obligation what-so-ever.. the last thing i want by adding this is for people to stop using my mods because they fell obligated.. Thanks

I think I have to check that out. I needs the arrows, I hate trying to drag back to where I need to edit/correct.

Well I must say, I just redownloaded Swiftkey 3 and all i have to say is holy freaking hell, it's much more amazing than I remember :o I do not remember it being that smooth and predictive. I think I may have found my new go to keyboard :D

i like the jelly bean keyboard pro from the market, the best 3 bucks ive ever spent. change the colors the font the size the layout the background even turn it into a split with or without arrows and alter the prediction curve. ive tried all of them because of my big arse fingers and this is the only one i can honestly say i can actually type halfway fast on..ymmv

Magic Keyboard Pro - Its the 1st paid app I have bought in about 6 mo. Its also really new just hit the market like 3-4 weeks ago. Its swiftkey style with predicive text but it seems to do better then swift, and do it faster. It also come with around 30 themes. There is a free version if anyone wants to check it out but it is lacking a lot compared to the pro version.
