+1 for swiftkey. Nice layout and the predictive text works great. It does tend to crash when used with RDP's tho.

I use smart keyboard pro, and I especially like that the keyboard is re-sizable .. so you can make it big or small depending on your own preferences :)

Swiftkey just got an update with an HD skin and a new English language module that has better word prediction. :)

Do you have to do anything to use that HD skin, or is it automatically. Enabled?

I'm diehard swiftkey that just got better with the update.

however...

It's not in the Market on my 101? I can't find it, but it's in the market on my phone.

????? Any idea what the heck is going on? I want my keyboard!

another question....does downloading applib interfere with the Android Market??? I don't want to download until I hear it's safe and doesn't mess with Market at all.
