Another keyboard/hinge issue variant. Anyone?

---

Anyone else having a lot of trouble not only adapting to this keyboard (lmao keep hitting ".com" instead of the "a" key)? But more importantly typing fast? Seems the keys might stick a little or perhaps are a little too resistive for my taste. I can usually correctly type but like I said, its slower than I feel the potential could be.


Also I know people are saying the hinge is not an issue but I beg to differ. In my usage, while I'm typing (totally upright) ill rest my two pointer fingers on the back of the screen (normal)....eventually it'll start to try and close as I'm typing MERELY from the very light pressure of me pressing my two pointer fingers on the very very under edge of the device. I really wish they used a normal sliding function.

Its taking me a little bit of time to get acclimated but that's just because I don't have the dedicated number row. I also hit the quick key as opposed to alt I'm just stuck in G1 mode lol it took me awhile moving from the sidekick lx to the G1s keyboard so I imagine I break this one in soon enough

I would suggest exchanging it or returning it and waiting a couple weeks to make sure the next G2 you get is from a newer batch. Reports from users say their new G2s have a much tighter hinge.

It's taking me quite a while to adapt as well. But that's normal. I've been on the G1's keyboard for 2 years... I could type on it without even looking - often did. But it's a rather big transition to go from that to the G2's keyboard, so I'd give it a couple weeks before criticizing the keyboard choice, personally
