REMOTE DESKTOP CHEAT-- onscreen keyboard
 

Not sure where i read it in the last few days but i heard the complaint that the is no text in put from the nokia when accessing a server with remote desktop.

my business runs from its own server and we have 6 thin clients in the office,
but being able access it from anywhere in the world is why we have it....freedom to be out of the office but witheverything at our finger tips... wherever we are.... email access, data storage and ftp.....
so remote desktop works well for me. this where the nokiaIT is amazing...

getting to the point i needed to be able to write quick messages on the server... i found my answer... on-screen keyboard.... an often forgotten function... but very useful in this situation...

true... but if i was going to bother to carrry around nokia IT AND a bluetooth keyboard I'd rather take my fujitsu lifebook....atleast its got an 80gb HDD.....
i love the Nokia cause it'll fit in my pocket.... fast easy access to the net

Thanks, I'd been missing input w/o a BT keyboard, and forgotten that trick!

I've been using the onscreen keyboard for a while. The only quirk is that if I minimize it , sometimes it is blank upon reactivation. I've been threatening to write a t9 version. :)

I have it on my taskbar read to go (plus the XP multi session hack)

To make sure I'm clear: you're talking a virtual keyboard hosted on the server? I've never tried that...

Yep, that's the one, under the "accessibility" accessories menu.

That's OK, neither did I until I saw this post!
