@DMDyne: Exactly my worries about switching to Android. I finally got my A81 to do most of what I want and I don't want to switch until I hear Android is much more stable. The latest firmware (1.8.11) has a much smaller keyboard built into it. It doesn't always pop up for me so I have to keep the taskbar "always on top" and "auto hide" which hides it in apps that don't need it such as CorePlayer, AlReader2 and MMCE but lets me access it for browsing or can get to the desktop.
The 1.8.11 build is at
