ive never had keyboard lag... and 2.0.2 genuinely feels faster

Still the same, lags way too long when doing a search in Contacts.

Yep. Earlier today I showed the iPhone (which I purchased yesterday) to a friend of mine. He's been on the fence about iPhone because he's often texting without looking at the display, and that's a no-go with iPhone. So I thought I'd try to impress him anyway, fired up the SMS application and presto: lagging like crazy with the big letters staying on the screen for ages after I released the keys... he's no longer on the fence, he's very relieved about having resisted the temptation to buy an iPhone. Nice 'money shot', Apple...

i have a friend that won't switch to iphone just because she can't text without looking too. she's very impressed by the phone but not being able to text without looking is a big turn-off for her.

Every person I talked to, who doesn't want an iPhone, disses it for not having buttons.

They will HAPPILY give everything else up for buttons to type with.

I bet a number of those people do a lot of texting while driving. It's a habit I certainly don't practice or condone, but if these daredevils can't be stopped then I would rather they stick to whatever they have and NOT buy an iPhone, as this would force them to take their eyes off the road.
