Hotkey on hardware keyboard to send text message?

Anyone know of a hardware hotkey (or fix?) to send a text message instead of touching "Send" on the touch screen? Fn+Enter, Ctrl+Enter would be pretty cool. I know it's a minor annoyance to tap send message on the screen; hopefully this doesn't seem too ridiculous.

I use AE button plus and mapped both of my soft keys to the keyboard. My left softkey is mapped to the "-_" key, and my right softkey is mapped to my "+=" key.

Now that's a good idea, never thought about mapping soft keys to the keyboard.
I'll have to look into this.

thanks

Where can I find that AE button plus?

Has anyone been able to complete this? I dont know how to map keys to the keyboard. I can see that you can map the green/red/ok buttons. But I dont see how you can map it to the hardware keyboard. Anyone care to explain?

it seems kind of silly to want to push a couple buttons instead of pushing one button. If ur gonna map to a keyboard key why not just hit the send on screen. Seems unnecessary

I don't know, but having to lift my thumb up a little higher and stretch it a few mm seems way outa whack to me..... maybe pressing FN + CN + enter and 1 at the same time would be more feasable....
