Unhappy Miss some old features

I really miss having dedicated push and hold comma and exclamation keys. Speed up some areas and slow down others. With press and hold delay set really low I could fly on the old version. Also still pretty laggy on ics. I am going to try task650 AOKP latest release to see if there is any lag improvement because it is bad enough right now to have me looking at alternatives...

Oh, and it appears that 'long press duration' is no longer an available option. Hopefully it will get added back after beta.

New beta is out today. Long press duration is back. So is the comma. Smart punctuation is improved, but I am still getting some lag on E4GT running 2.3.6

And i dont't know what it is about SwiftKey and I but it never seems to autocorrect for me. It's not that it corrects improperly, it just doesn't do it.

Set spacebar to "always insert center prediction" that is the closest to auto correct since version 1.

Well I am happy to report that with the new beta, comma IS back, and I love the location, long press duration has improved speed of accessing secondary characters, and lag has been GREATLY minimized on ICS. So far even the beta is a keeper! Oh, and no more double and triple back swipes to delete a word. That was driving me crazy...

Ive gotta say, the previous release was a lot better than this one for me. I feel as though my typing is less accurate than it was before, and i feel as though the dedicated comma is slightly unnecessary. Also, the update seems to have broken my autocorrections

You on MIUI? It didn't work for me in that ROM, but does in others.

Try changing from rapid to precise or vice versa. Strangely in they seemed to work opposite for me. Rapid in the old version feels like precise in the new one. I switched to the old version after a rom upgrade over the weekend and forgot how fast it was. I am still waiting for the new version to come out of beta. The swipe punctuation is a bad step IMO.
