Alright, for starters, this isn't a rant. I'm just interested in knowing how other users are adapting to the G1's keyboard. When I first got the phone the keys didn't bother me that much. Although, now they are killing my thumbs (My goodness). How are yours feeling ?

I haven't noticed any thumb problems but I have years of training with vidoegames and my sidekick so maybe thats why.

Am not haveing any problems but the first few days i got my phone my texting skillz were horrible. I cam from a tmobile dash and i actually think i could text faster on that phone. Am getting allot better on the g1 so i thinks its a learning curve.

I can type amazingly fast with it. I have never had a sidekick. My last phone was the. Dash. Much faster on g1. My left shift button doesn't click, so I never know if I actually have caps or not, but I usually don't care. And besides it usually does work when i just baqrely touch so it's no big deal.

I must admit that the keys are tiny (or i have giant fingers...) and they don't protrude enough...

still better than t9 tho...

the only problem i have is when theres some thing plugged into the usb - headphones typically or charger - it means the poisition your right hand has to take is very uncomfortable.

Great keyboard. Use it a lot for work and it's almost effortless.
