Tried swiftkey for a few days, all seemed to be good, til I just found it doesn't agree with Polaris, can't edit text properly

Hacker keyboard, it feels more natural when I SSH into machines or do sysadmin-y stuff.
The stock ICS keyboard is (obviously) more tailored to the masses (EG facebook users) and not IT engineers.

I also have word suggestions and autofixes disabled because it generally doesn't do what I want and instead annoys the crap out of me.

As soon as i got my 300 the first thing i did was buy swiftkey tablet off the market because i love it so much on my 3vo. I gotta say though i'm a little disappointed with the tablet version. The split or thumb mode is just too far for my thumbs to comfortably reach and the lack of theme support (in both versions phone and tab) still perplexes me. Its kinda ugly....I'm gonna give thumb a try

I use Swiftkey 3 Tablet, but I have to agree that the UI needs work. Not really because it's ugly (I like it with the Holo theme. Both versions have theme support. Look harder.), but because the keys are offset strangely. One side uses a stair-step effect for key placement while the other side has the keys set in a column against the edge of the screen. This makes it hard to keep my thumbs aligned, and I hit the wrong key a lot.

SwiftKey 3 for Tablet

But when I connect the dock I've to use de stock :(
Also happens to me, I find SwiftKey 3 tablet great, but when I connect the dock, the dictionary suggestions appear on the bottom of the screen, although there is no input field active. Also I found the best solution to use the stock keyboard when connecting to dock, but if Swiftkey would allow to disable auto-prediction when connected to table, it would be perfect.
