Okay, I'll bite Tim! I use a keyboard and the iPad. Keyboard for all those long emails and for my diary HD app. It's easier for us trained typists to use.

Yes, for when I have lots of typing to do but no for short typing spells, not that I type many short spells, I leave that to Harry Potter!

I would probably have voted 'no', but since my BT keyboard was gifted me I feel obliged to sometimes use it. Mainly for longer texts like blogs and when I need faster typing (which happens quite rarely )...

I have a JB-ed iPad2 (32Gb/WiFi/6.1.2), and I'm not afraid to use it!
I have one that doubles as a stand, and a case. It's indispensible when i'm getting inundated with instant messages and e-mails while trying to goof off!

Rarely, but I do keep one paired and handy in case I need/want it.
Buggrit, I managed to vote 'soon' instead of no. I did have an apple BT keyboard, but I literally just sold it. I thought I would use it for blogs, long emails and the productivity apps (pages, numbers etc). However, I have found that the enhanced functionality of the on-screen kb is too useful to miss. Hold down a key and get every variation of the accents etc, or additional punctuation options. Automatic expansion of .com addresses, auto capitals at the start of a sentence and the really handy double space to add a full stop. Also, the custom keyboard for data entry in numbers for example is needed to enter data, formulae etc which the physical kb cant do
So, back to the OSK for me.....

Keyboards are winning though! I still don't have a good solution for sub and superscript though.
