again it is spb full screen kb.

They don't seem to make this exact keyboard anymore....upgraded both the product and the price. There are a couple of skins on the new keyboard that are similar. Here's a link....scroll towards the bottom.

This is spb version 3. try emailing customer support to see if they will still sell you a license for it. They've upgraded to version 4 which is OK but not as good imo... I did find that the "dark grey" skin for version 4 is most like this skin.

Found it. Thanks for clarifying. Looking at the revision history, it seems like the half-screen mode (in portrait) and button popup are about the only interesting new features in 4.x. Version 3 actually seems more capable than 4.

In portrait, does version 3 take up the whole screen? (Edit: Inferring from the skin I link below, I see that it is also full screen in portrait)

Thanks again.

Edit: For those using V3, here are VGA HTC-style skins for Spb Keyboard:

That's what I noticed also. Does this keyboard replace the stock keyboard on it's own or will I have to launch it and run it in the background.......?

It's all out there if you look... I've attached it here.

For extra skins, look in Spb's forum.

Thing is I like the OEM keyboard that I can just hold the key for the alt characters.. but with both versions of spb you press either the ABC key or the function key to get the alt characters so versionwise that is a wash.

Suz.. when loaded/installed you can set it as default keyboard and it will be the popup that comes. I do like that you can switch to landscape at anytime by pressing the keyboard button on the layout, which is also how you get to the menu button to change your options.. also I have it and all hte various skins installed on the storage card without issue. I am using version 4 since I went ahead and got the uprade for $4.95, paid only $9.95 originally for version 3 plus the 20% discount for already owning spb software... its a great company as far as support and $$ goes.

Please clarify:

With V3.x, I have to press "FN" to access symbol & alternate characters, press and hold does not work (is there an alternate method??). It's a reasonable strategy, press FN once, hit the character you want, QWERTY stays put.

With V4.x, I have to press "Sym" to access the alternate character panel, I would press the desired key, and then "ABC" to return to QWERTY. It's a minor pain. Is there an alternate method here I'm not aware of?

I wish the HTC OE QWERTY includes a row of numbers on top so I wouldn't have to "press and hold" for numbers.
