I used to use this on my moto droid. I don't remember where I got it from, I copied the keyboard pngs out of some theme and put it on this vanilla 2.1 android keyboard.
Its a sweet dark black keyboard that almost appears to have glowing edges. Haptic feedback and sound works.
all you have to do is, boot to recovery and start a command prompt. go to partitions menu and mount system.
at the prompt enter this
adb push VoiceSearchWithKeyboard.apk
adb reboot
then when you get to a box where you can enter text, long press, then select Input Method
Then select Android Keyboard. Done.
