You don't need to drag the key to select the letter. The predictive text works the same way as many mobile phones by choosing the correct letter for you.

My personal negative point towards this keyboard is that it doesn't allow easy access to many symbols. The standard on-screen keyboard gives me access to 26 letters, 10 numbers and 26 symbols without having to change mode. This only gives me letters and 16 symbols, with everything else pushed into tabs.

How does this compare to me already being able to make Skype calls on my Pocket PC over wifi?
