Is there still a possibility to have a switch to turn on and off the portrait keyboard?

What is going on with this project? Have you guys given up or just busy with other things? I really think a QWERTY feature should be implemented into it at least then we have a more usable portrait function,

T9 would be AMAZING but the multi tap input is painful and unpractical to use :( so QWERTY is needed :)

you must have huge difficulties understanding metaphors?

e: I'll help you a bit:

what difference does it make to install potentially dangerous software from extras-devel (@work) and some 3rd party repository (@home)?

Ricardo, just enable extras-devel, DON'T update anything until you disable Extras-Devel, go to the downloads in app-manager, find "Portrait-Keyboard", install that, and then disable extras-devel. You're more at risk having someone slip you bad software by asking for links then if you go into Maemo.org's official repositories, I think.

As for everyone asking about what's going on with this project: Read the first post. There's a link in it to where it's being worked on:

http://gitorious.org/hildon-portrait-keyboard

Latest change was Sunday, June 27th. So it's sorta stagnated, but not long enough to believe that it's not going to get done at all. (Though it does look like a few other people are working on it more than the original posters. *Shrug*)

Would it be possible to have a keyboard like the one in Opera
