Personally I would use a layout based upon http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Switching_Keyboards_on_Om_2007.2#Modified_Matchbox_Keyboard:_finger_friendly this has an easy way to enter any key you want (like esc or ctrl+c, or the arrows) and also has "capslock" pressing and holding for additional characters will slow us down when using the terminal for example... anyway, this is just my opinion there seems to be a lot of enthousiasm about it on IRC, is someone planning to try and implement this? y _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
