    Default Physical or Virtual Keyboard?

    Just seeing which you type faster on, and which you prefer.

    Take autocorrect into consideration.

    Obviously. More specifically, the iPhone keyboard. People complain about its lack of a physical keyboard, so I want to know if you prefer the iPhone's virtual keyboard over other phones' physical ones.

    I don't care too much for landscape. Honestly, it slows me down and I make more mistakes. Guess it's just because I'm used to portrait.

    I really wish Apple would add a setting to lock its apps in a certain orientation so Safari or Messages wouldn't turn to landscape while you're lying down.

    There's an SBSettings toggle to turn rotation off.

    Well it depends which virtual keyboard. I prefer virtual better than physical and I type faster on virtual. I've had a G1 and the on screen keyboard sucks, the iPhone's on screen keyboard is nice.
