Anyone here use the 'Better Keyboard 7 or 8' app?

The thing that I used to love on my old Blackberry Storm was the reduced keyboard. I could text much faster with it. I downloaded Better Keyboard 8 and it has the reduced keyboard option. Great! Despite it force closing once in a while, I found it's dumb. It doesn't learn at all!

Here's an example:

I want to type out: T-E-X-T

Well the same combination of keys also spells out TEAT. Ok fine. So after I select TEXT as one of the possible words that I want entered, you would think that the keyboard would remember that I want TEXT and not TEAT. Well WTF?!, no it doesn't. Same thing goes for 'BO' and 'NO'.

Anyone have experience with this. Am I missing a setting that I should enable?
Thanks!
