    I have one too, but I changed my password on this site a while back and now I can't remember it lmao. When I get it figured out, I will do some testing as well.

    Edit: figured it out. Why would I choose that password.... lmao

    Very interesting. I didn't have that issue with mine, this may be something with that specific tablet on that specific firmware. I'm sure when Ken has some more time he will look more into it.

    Sorry for the delay, and I didn't get a chance to test it. I had my hands full with a forum migration for a client, and everything that could go wrong did (out of my control, their hosting company had older versions of server software than required, and refused to upgrade it).

    Anyway, I'm looking into this now.

    That sounds so much like JustHost! "We have top of the line equipment that is out of date" lmao.

    Actually I am using the swiftSwif swiftkey keyboard on this tablet. This is the only place it happens lol.


    No rusb or anything, just figure i should tosstit up Maybe later ( going car shopping later) i will disable this keyboard and go with the genaric one on this tablet and see if there are issues

    thanx thus far gents

    K, now I am using the default Samsung keyboard. No issues with the suggestions doubling up etc.
    Its a shame. I really liked the ease of the swiftkey keyboard. Problem is it said it was possible for all my keystrokes to be captured by there company etc...... so that has turned me off of it
