so what you are saying is that if the touch pro came with the ability to hit FN + ENTER to send texts/emails you would not use it? i think you would. to me it is like going from the keyboard to the mouse on a PC. why use the mouse when you can hit the Enter button, or ALT + S, CTL + Enter, etc.

I for one would like to know a keyboard shortcut for sending texts too, something about hitting the screen just doesn't flow right while texting in threads, hahah.

I remember I tried teaching someone to use ctrl+x, c, v, etc for copy pasting, but refused to use them and swore by the fact that the mouse was still more efficient, hahah.

No, I wouldn't. The "Send" soft key is one touch and it's done. Now, if Enter sent the text message without having to use FN, I'd definitely use that.

this has already been tatlked about. i use a program called AEbutton to remap the double tap enter to left soft key (send) or whatever u want, thats just what works 4 me

i know these work just like the Comps KB ,CTRL A (highlight All), CTRL C (Copy selected),and CTRL V (Paste) just for future refrence. i dont know of a diffent way to "Send" i just tap send i never thought about it before though.

back from my ICQ days about 10 years ago i am pretty sure ALT+S or maybe it was ALT+Enter would send a msg. i know we do not have an ALT key but if most of the other KB shortcuts work i am sure something could be figured out.

Im waiting to see can this be done also. I don't like breaking my flow to hit the onscreen send.

yes, texting FTMFW!

it does suck having to stretch your thumb up to the screen from the keyboard.
