I feel that it is futile at this point to ask for them to re-think
nontrivial design issues. What would be less futile is to make it a
wishlist item for future OpenMoko phones, which I'm pretty sure it is
already. Hopefully there will, in the future, be enough demand for a
variety of different models to be economically feasible.

That said, I'd also like a keyboard. I'll probably buy one, too, since
the phone does have BT, and there are small BT keyboards on the market.
(Incidentally, I do hope the default apps take into account that there
may be a keyboard present in addition to the touchscreen.)
