I did use the keyboard on the iPhone. It is OK for short text
messages, which is exactly what it is made for. The intelligent text
corrector is fine as long as long as you are typing in English. If
you have to type in two or three languages, like many folks using it
as a business phone do on a daily base, it becomes far less useful.
It also does not help you when typing SMS shortcuts (stuff like
"cul8tr"). But HWR has exactly the same issues.

Still far better than the 3-3-3 4-4 7-7-7-7 2-2 input on numeric
keypads.
