Default Best Keyboard: Swype vs SwiftKey vs DroidX vs other?

What's your opinion?

I was just messing around and tried Swype, SwiftKey, stock, and the DroidX Multitouch. I definitely have to say the DroidX Multitouch is the best for both prediction, correction, and UI.

The nicest thing about the DroidX keyboard is that the multitouch prediction works on the hardware keyboard as well (good or bad thing).

I am trying out the multitouch keyboard right now and all i have to say that on the epic its epic. Its insanely fast. I like swype for when im driving since i can use 1 finger but for pure speed the droid x keyboard wins hands down.

She took off a silver locket, said remember me by this.
She put her hand in my pocket, I got a keep sake and a kiss.
And in the roar of dust and diesel, I stood I watched her walk away.
I could have caught up with her easy enough but something must have made me stay.

My favorite is Smart Keyboard Pro & Droid X keyboard. Both keyboards have built in multitouch. Smart keyboard pro is more customizable and looks better in my opinion.

Texting speed record was smashed with swype. It is by far the fastest keyboard you can get on a touchscreen phone.
