Try thumb keyboard. Its fantastic for spacing out the keys for thumb typing in landscape and portrait.
I switched to a dvorak keyboard, since you can't touch-type on a on-screen keyboard, why do people still need to use qwerty? Using Dvorak gives each hand a more balanced use to type
Thanks, I will give it a shot
how did you manage to switch the keyboard, I cannot find the option to to change Input Method in keyboards settings menu?
Thanks for any tips how to change the keyboard....

nevermind - I already found it by longpressing and input field.... I wonder why they removed it from the settings menu....
thumb keyboard is awesome. a little pricey for most apps but i thought the flyer standard keyboard was impossible to type on in landscape mode.
so +1 to thumb keyboard its 2.49 in the market.
I love it in landscape but in portrait the standard android keyboard is easier to use for me.

Or use thumb keyboard which can have different layouts in different orientations.
has anyone with a WiFi only Flyer gotten Swype to work (i.e., license properly)? Swype is the keyboard I'd like to use.
BTW, can anyone recommend a physical bluetooth keyboard?
I am a registered Swype beta user. Swype installer installed ok (had to turn of Mobile View in browser to get it) and so far it is running ok. Unfortunately the current beta version lacks a lot of languages that are available for the preinstalled devices....

Well I'd like to use the thumb keyboard in landscape mode and Swype in portrait. I am just too hooked on swype.

The new Swype 3.0 beta will now work with WiFi-only devices. I got it working on my Flyer. But it has some serious bugs. It is not really useable in the Notes application.
On Honeycomb, the 3.0 Swype has a resizable keyboard which is absolutely great in landscape mode. But I won't be fully satisfied until we have one keyboard with the features of Swype + Thumb Keyboard + Slide-IT + Hacker's Keyboard. Each of those keyboards has some unique features that I like.
I have the Sprint View and it came with swype installed. Of course it is an older version. Not usable in my opinion..have to swipe too far on the View/Flyer. I tried Swiftkey tablet and it installs....but isn't great for the screen size. It's too small. Plus it does not work in the notes app.

Trace keyboard works only in select situations. For example, it will not work when entering a browser address or on search, but will work in messages. Try it there?

I believe you also have to have suggestions turned on to get the trace to work. It has been a while since I have used that keyboard though.

Is there a way to switch and Use Touchscreen Keyboard while in Dock?
Thanks
Yes, it seems that it was just recently added but when you are in a typing window with the dock connected look in the bottom right corner for the keyboard icon. Click that and then in that menu there is a switch at the top to switch between using physical and virtual keyboard.

Thanks so much, you guys are GREAT!!!!!
I have different but similar question.
If there is any way to use external keyboard (I mean loaded from the Market, like Swype or Thumb keyboard) with dock. I can't change language layout.
Does anyone know why my car home app won't start up when car mode does? It was always automatic on my previous devices.

samsung doesn't have a car home app. just navigation.
easiest way to get that on when you enter a car is tac tiles.

I've installed a 3rd party car home app, though.
Anyone?
I use Car Home Ultra @ https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDMsInNwaW5uaW5naGVhZC5jYXJob21lIl0 without any issues.

But does it start automatically when Car Mode starts, or do you have to do it manually?
It did on my thunderbolt, I don't have a car dock for the note yet.

I have connected SHIELD to TV and either BT mouse or a MOGA controller, but I couldn't figure out a way to go "back" or "home". There's no onscreen buttons, anyone have any ideas how to use "home" or "back"?
