no one....?

yes its in the settings under user preferences i believe, its called #12 swap or something. Make sure you kill the keyboard so the setting takes effect.

Make your own keyboard here http://www.gimpsta.com/themer/

Simple. Just design it the way you like and install it like a regular apk.

Thanks as well, I hadn't even thought of skinning the keyboard but it definitely fits my phone better now

what do you all think are the big advantages of the HTC IME keyboard over the stock keyboard

Personally? I love being able to long press a letter to get the symbol behind it, quite handy for entering items like email addresses and such.
