Re: [Gta04-owner] [ANN] GTA04 Keyboard prototype
:) nice, thanks! ok, I'll make something serious then, see if this attracts the community. I'llstart another topic once I have the first draft ready.

A casing that you would clip on the left (or right) forearm, that would be thin enough to fit under the sleeves or even covered with a piece of nice fabric to look like a cloth. This keyboard would probably fit well on the forearm together with the screen and it would make the whole thing easier to use. I am also thinking to place the antenna on the outside of the arm, above a piece of aluminum foil in order to reflect the radiated power and to protect the user from RF field. At the moment I don't have the GTA04, but I can make some rough drawings from the CAD files (I will need to download them). Would there be other people interested in this new way of carring your phone? I previously had some positive comments on the forum about this, so I think we could probably start a small group if there is enough interest. I'm also very interested in making a wearable out of the gta04, and I'd buy your design to sponsor its development if it were available. About the announcement itself, I think it is always good to show new ideas at early stages. This makes it possible for the community to orient the development of the project if they see better/different ways to use it. It also shows the level of interest.

QtMoko's new keyboard
Hi, while there was discussion about hw keyboard, i was working on software onscreen keyboard with simple goal: implement the best onscreen keyboard in the world. I think i am now very close ;-) The key is to have as big buttons as possible. Here is picture and video of how it looks now: http://activationrecord.net/radekp/pub/keyboard.png http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyN7wS66y_I It still needs some more work, but it's currently very usable and i am really happy how it works. E.g. the video was taken with N900 in my left hand and still with the SMS layout i made no mistake. My plan for now is to finish it up and remove all those 5!! QtMoko input methods in favour of this one. I can make installable packages of the old methods if anyone is interested. This should be part of v45. For v46 i can try to implement customizable layouts and unicode characters.
