The Android On-screen Keyboard So Challenging That Alternative Keyboards Keep Popping Up For It

As a regular (as in daily) user of both the iPhone (4 is my current model) and Android (mostly Nexus One but also the Motorola Droid), I think the iPhone’s on-screen keyboard is better than the Android’s on-screen keyboard in both portrait and landscape modes. Android’s keyboard in portrait orientation offers a special challenge for me since I regularly unintentionally press one of the four soft keys running along the bottom of the screen (back, settings, home, search).
