Can't seem to find the keyboard option again

Hello,

I just got the touch so I'm learning some things unique to it now. I prefer a full alphabet keyboard at all times. There is the standard one that came with the 6700 and mogul. It lets you switch between small and large. I kept getting the Touch keyboard which has more than one letter on a button. At one point I had a touch/htc keyboard that was larger than the standard MS one and had the black background but had all the letters of the alpahabet. I would like that to be my default but I can't even get it to come back up - I keep getting the combo button keyboard. Anyone know how I can get this one back and set it as my default? It only came up in one app - I think when I was setting up my owner info.

Thanks

That keyboard only pops up when you are inputting a password. I don't think a way to make it permanent has been found out yet.

Start using the suretype keyboard you will fall in love with how fast you can type

hope you have OK sized fingers (no offense

)

I'm using PCM right now and like it a lot - it doesn't always close but hey it's beta and free so who would complain?

there's a way to make the full QWERTY "stick"; read here for more detail...

has anyone found a way to perhaps just make the full 26key keyboard another option instead of making it stick and disabling the xt9 keyboard?

I would like to use both of them at different times.
