Yes it does, although it has to be enabled in Settings first.

Which is great. Windows Mobile constantly pissed me off popping up the on screen keyboard when I didn't need it.

Also I can't believe I never knew about how Ctrl worked all these years. I feel ashamed to call myself a techie now.

It has the same virtual fullscreen keyboard as the 770, N800, and N810 have.

I'm not sure about this, certainly Ctrl + l doesn't do this on my PC under Ubuntu.

Do you have to enable something for this to work?

It works in a terminal. Outside of it it seems to bahev a bit differently. I guess it depends on what level you are in the whole keyboard setup and how that gets handled by apps/libs/etc...

I don't think it does, id doesn't in Ubuntu, xterm, urxvt, even just the login console.
