Input settings pop up when typing?

Did the ICS update last night, and have been steadily adjusting to this completely new style. I think I love it, but i'm  not convinced. One issue I'm having is whenever I start typing on the keyboard (I switched to the stock keyboard from smart keyboard pro), the input settings pops up in the notification bar. I hit back and it disappears. Is this part of the update or a bug? It does it under all my possible keyboards: pro, stock, and swype.

Also, still no screenshot option, android? really?

Thanks!

I am experiencing the same thing with the input settings.  I am hoping it will go away.

As for the screenshot, hold the power button and volume down at the same time for a few seconds.  It will take a screenshot and save it to your images.

Having the input settings in the notification bar is a feature of the ICS operating system. It will be there no matter what keyboard you use.

That seems a little unnecessary, like it would create unnecessary lag. But okay. Thanks for the info, and thank goodness we can finally screenshot! I should have googled that first before asking...
