Don't get me wrong. I'm not suggesting that my version is a success. I think the problems run deeper than drop shadows.

b_b and I were just laughing about how funny it would be if you designed a keyboard this way. The 'e' might be so big you could slap it with your palm, and 'q' so small that you'd have to grab a stylus to tap it. :)

What confuses me the most is how little sense any of the tile sizes make. On a brand new Lumia 920 (supposedly the flagship WP8 phone) random things are huge, and other things are tiny. Every default Windows app seemed to have a Nokia duplicate thrown in as well.

Yeah, it doesn't solve a problem, that's for sure.
