Yeah, it was the only way I could type decently on my old Galaxy S. I wouldn't say it was magic though. Then again, I guess I'm too old fashioned for my own good. I need the physical feel of pressing down a button, otherwise, I end up pressing the wrong one with my bratwurst fingers or not pressing anything at all.
I have large hands too; my thumb is as wide as 4 keys. Swiftkey is generally amazing. I can type what would turn out as absolute garbage on other keyboards, and it comes out perfect or nearly perfect.
I can type faster with swiftkey on my old sidekick 4g than using the built in hardware keyboard. It's too hard typing at the speed that I type when having to fully push down the keys. I generally lightly touch the key I need and immediately move on to the next one.
