In the latest version try to start from one outer region, trace 
counterclockwise til the same region and proceed 1, 2, n regions more to 
reduce 1x, 2x ,nx size ;) e.g. start from region 1, proceed to 
4-7-8-9-6-3-2-1-4  to reduce 1x time.
Rounding clockwise obviously enlarges ;)
For me too qwo rocks! :)
Bye! :)

 Hi,

 So far on my FR, I've mostly been typing non-dictionary words so the
 predictive keyboard has been getting in my way. I knew a few people
 had created finger friendly keyboards so I had a bit of a play.


Have you tried Qwo ? http://www.opkg.org/package_84.html

for me despite it's unconventional approach and learning curve, this
is now my favourite keyboard for sms.

I'm using it successfully on shr-testing. YMMV

cheers Denis

Me too...
Actually... I think I have only one finger friendly solution which will 
remedy that. What I wish for is a large transparent fullscreen keyboard 
which is activated by a short press on AUX. (long press = some menu)

Combine this with auto-rotation and writing an SMS will just be turning 
you Neo and pressing AUX. You'll have large keys, to easily hit and 
you'll be able to see the text you write through the keyboard overlay.

xcompmgr + xvkbd can already do that but I found smaller keyboard
actually faster to use since I don't need to move my fingers that
much.
