    Simply because is branded "SPB" doesn't make it the best keyboard.

    Actually its features are very close to what the default OS keyboard offers, so it doesn't make sense to pay 14.95 bucks just to waste extra memory.

    If you want a real keyboard, take a look at Teksoft's Fingertouch, or Cootek's Touchpal.

    Not to mention the freeware alternatives.
