And now that I'm back on my laptop, some more things I find frustrating with Android keyboards- text selection.
On all Roms I've tried, selecting text for cutting or copying is far more difficult than on iOS. Putting the damn curser precisely where I want it is a mission- despite the S2's very large screen.
So if I type out a paragraph, read through it and find a mistake- going back to fix it usually takes 3 or 4 attempts and becomes more frustrating than its worth. I guess the iOS magnifying glass method is probably patented, but it makes cursor positioning and text selection as incredibly fast, easy and intuitive as it should be.
Keyboards and text editing are one of the main reasons I want to go back to iOS.
yea i hate the precision of android's text selection BUT what i do is just double tap the word and retype it. easy. HTC desire running MIUI with gingerbread keyboard.
