No, I've never used an iPhone, and I will not.
Have you ever used the Terminal of the Moko to keyin UNIX commands?

If you have a keyboard of Terminal-style let's asume it occupies half of
the screen, i.e. 320x480 pixel, then the keys are to small to be hit
without a stylus, perhaps not even with that special stylus for
Capacitive screens someone was pointing me to (don't know, but it has
6.5mm of size the page says);

so, please no Capacitive screen for me either in the GTA03;
