    Frankly. I'm glad here is no calibrating...because that would lead to user nightmares.

    It could, but resetting to default settings should be an option if that were the case. I've no need to recalibrate, but it might be useful for some people with touch probs.

    Under Settings > Sounds, turn up the Ringer and Alerts volume slider so you can hear yourself type. That may help teach you to type without missing letters.

    Ok, That sounds like an interesting idea, will try and see if it works for me :-)

    I do a decent amount of typing and I also have some issues with keys not always registering and auto correct silliness. I have found that slowing down a little bit helps immensely and I actually save time since slowing down takes care of any issues so I don't have to go back and fix stuff. A sensitivity feature would be welcomed. I do have a splash masque screen protector on which probably inhibits a slight amount of touch sensitivity. Overall, it's still pretty useful and I really like the tap keyboard. It's sounds cool too, almost like an old typewriter.

    An alternative would be to use a stylus - more accurate on the virtual keypad.
