I made a multitap keyboard (like that found on symbian in portrait mode) for maliit. You can find it in mesinput with id 219060. You can also modify it freely for your language and submit it again.

One or two things I didn't find how to do were the following
1. Extended labels for keys with the cycleset attribute. (I would like to have the option to show the number on longpress)
2. Multiple character extended labels. You will notice the smiley button does not work as intended when you longpress it.
3. Autocapitalization is buggy with multitap so I had to turn it off. (Also the shift key needs to be depressed to write any other letter than the forst one of a set, because it deactivates after the first click. This also seems a bug of maliit. I will see if I can report it somewhere.
