At least on the simulator, it is possible for your event loop to not receive key events. Cobalt seems to have the notion of a focus window, which is NULL when a form opens. The first penDownEvent will set the focus to the forms window but ONLY IF you return false from your event handler. If you return true then your form won't get focus and you won't receive any keyDownEvent events.
