Landscape Keyboard

[daviolinist12]

Does anyone know if there will be a landscape keyboard on the HTC Incredible?

I haven't heard anything about it.. I think it would be a real bummer if there wasn't.

Thanks!

Yes, but if it's the same as the Eris' w/2.1 (which I'm assuming since they're both Sense), it sucks. The Settings key is next to the spacebar, which makes it easy to pop out of the keyboard when you overpress and brings up that annoying menu, AND, worse, is that it doesn't have a "Send" button in landscape mode. You have to either go back to portrait mode, or press the keyboard key, which closes the keyboard, then reveals the smaller text input box with a Send key. Whoever allowed that bug to carry over from 1.5 should be fired.

FYI a good alternative (at least for the Eris) is Ultra Keyboard.

That was LEAKED though. That doesn't necessarily mean that the official eris 2.1 release will have that...

If you use Handcent, it has an option to have the Enter key send the message.

Really?! Hell, I must have missed that in the other 10,000 settings! I'll have to check. Thanks!
