folks,<br>
<br>
I just received my FreeRunner yesterday, and I have a problem:<br>
The keyboard that shows up when I am going to enter my PIN code only has<br>
lower-case letters! There is no shift/caps lock either... Is this just a<br>
missing basic feature, or have my technology insight failed me?<br>
I am still using the Om that came pre-installed (should I flash SHR?).<br>
<br>
I would also like to know how to open a terminal (do I have to install<br>
one from the rep.?)...<br>
<br>
All help appreciated!<br>

<p><b>Q: Why did the OM newbie log onto #openmoko?</b>
</p>
<p>A: Because they had not read:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<ol>
<li> the wiki, and
</li>
<li> the topic
</li>
</ol>
</li>
</ul>
<p>As then they would know you slide your finder up on the keyboard
to get the numbers to enter your sim pin. </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Cheers!<br>

Yes, that is correct, but I didn't know that finger gestures on the
keyboard would work. I even figured how to delete characters ;D<br>

Yes, I noticed the power drain. I'll flash SHR since it is most used.<br>
