Oh, I know it's quite feasible. And quite a lot of the system is open
source. Since it runs on a very limited Linux kernel, I can see it
wouldn't be much of a problem. If any of the phone team are listening,
please put it on the wish-list.
The physical keyboard is retrovation. My first smartphone was running
Windows Mobile 5. I updated an app to run on that phone, and had to
write a Windows XP app to allow modules (texts) to be added. It was
that process that finally made me bin Windows altogether. It was just
so flakey under the surface, and the 'Frameworks' were ridiculous to
work with.
