<div dir="ltr">hum having the keyboard optimized for text message is a must.....<br><br>I mean.. it s a phone... and yougth peole do a lot a text messaging, chat... so having a keyboard with predictive typing you can type fast your text message, or your chat (gchat, Ychat, aol, icq etce tcetc).<br>
<br>Personaly, I do not use any xterm, so the keyboard is perfect...<br>if Iwant to enter commands to the phone.. I ssh it... much easier and faster.... After all it s supose to be a phone, and I inted to use it uing my finger, ad the icon/menu that are on the screen.<br>
<br>I really like the 2008.8, the desing of it specially. only thing is the wifi that doesn't work properly.. the rest is fine... it s the best version I have seen so far for the Freerunner...<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

</div>Hi,<br>
<br>
I filed ticket <a href="https://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/1795" target="_blank">https://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/1795</a> to hopefully get the<br>
existing keyboard at least a bit more usable than only for sending SMS..<br>
