anyone else have the quirk of the phone placing dollar signs or other symbols next to the preceeding letter or number when using sms?

Yes

Yes, it does that because it was designed for punctation, like putting in a comma from a menu that shows up after hitting space. Great for that, but sadly not designed quite so well. You just have to hit space, then backspace, then space again and put it in.

Irritating bug.

I'm sure it could be fixed in a (pseudo)ROM but it is a stock piece of (mal)function..

... did anyone stop to think maybe turning off Auto-Punctuate.... or "Show Suggestions".... might disable that?
The annoying bug I have seen is it seemingly randomly capitalizing words.

I have read a few threads on a few build quality issues but not mention this, if I have missed them then mod please feel free to delete.
Anyone else noticed this, its not a big deal but I noticed that when typing on the physical keyboard I could feel even hear a slight creak as I typed away. I worked out that this was being caused by the battery twisting and creeping its way slowly out of position. I have sorted this with a small ball of bluetack, no more creak.

That's what I am enjoying now but before it was really getting annoying.

Nothing here. Keyboard sounds are just the expected ones.
No creaking here. So far..

Does anyone have problems with the android keyboard dissapearing? ?? And the only way to get it back is by restarting the phone?

I have several issues with the keyboard including the one you mentioned.
If I plug it in to charge it kind if messes with the calibration and when I'm tying it seems like the phone thinks I'm touching all other parts of the screen (like hitting the backspace will type P's in the text field)
I've also experienced something with the new m.Facebook where ill tap on text field and it'll open up the keyboard but it'll hide again. I have to try to open it sometimes more than 7 or 8 times before it stays open.
I'm thinking of unrooting it and taking it to best buy (I got the protection for it) I've just been lazy about it lol.

My keyboard will sometimes partly disappear and become unresponsive. It gets really weird when I switch the phone back and forth from landscape. The only way to fix it for me is to restart the phone.

If I use a third party charger from china to charge my Nexus S, the touchscreen goes crazy too lol. The original charger doesn't do that
The worse offense of the keyboard is still the double-letter glitch with the first letter of words (for "eexample"). Still rampant since 2.3.3.
If y'all want to add your recent experiences to the keyboard glitch report I filed with Google, please do: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=14755
I have the same issue. The keyboard will disappear and they will just be empty space where it was. If you remember where the buttons are u can still type its there u just can't see it (great, right! ) . I am running stock 2.3.3 and I have done a factory reset for that and other issues but it comes back. I have to turn the phone off and back on to resolve.... until it comes back at least. Happens at least once a week sometimes a lot more sometimes less. Either way, very annoying.
So, no, it's not just you.

On the some of the other phones I've owned you were able to modify the way the phone vibrated when in silent mode. There were options that could set it to pulse and change the duration and increase the vibration strength.
I was curious if this was something one of the developers could possibly bake in to a future rom or if anyone knew any apps that did it.
There are apps thatll do that

Really? You got my interest. You care to name one that'll do any of what the op said? I am personally interested in increasing the vibrate strength to something a bit more less pansy like.
Hell, my pager from the late 80's had more a vibrate than this thing does. I can set the phone on top of my hand whilst I am on my laptop and if it weren't for handcent lighting up the screen i'd have never known I got a text message while on silent/vibrate. It's weaker than a ladybug fart.
Smart vibrator for one ,its free im sure there are others havent really looked
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
You can customize how long short or strong it vibrates for both calls and other notifications
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
How about a program that causes the Epic to vibrate stronger than its default maximum? I think that's what op was asking. I have the same question since my intensity decreased after the update. Can we mess with the "settings"?
How do I stop my virtual keyboard from popping up when im docked? I try to type ANYTHING with my keyboard dock and half my screen is gone because the stupid virtual one comes out!
The only thing I could do on mine was reboot it.

Has anyone else seen this...my bottom "back" button (menu-home-back-search) seems to be much less responsive than it used to be...all the others seem ok... Is there a way to calibrate their sensitivity?

I don't think there is a way to calibrate those. But some thing you might want to add to the OP is what rom you are on maybe there is a setting that I don't know about.
I'm on mostly stock now... Tried out Thunderhawk's latest and saw no difference.... (with that at least)...

might be a hardware problem then. if you went back to stock and same thing is happening.
Yeah...my that's my guess too...likely that my phone just has a little hardware issue...it still works, but I frequently have to hit the back button 2 or 3 times to get it to register...sigh.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
its a hardware issue. My search button isn't as sensitive as the others. Good thing I don't use that often.
