When I want to reflow text in MicroB I have to press Ctrl+Shift+I which is pretty awkward, everytime I nearly drop my N900. How you guys do it? Ctrl+Shift+whatever key is nearly impossible on N900 keyboard.
Is there a way to change such key settings?

Left hand: Index finger for shift, middle finger for ctrl and my thumb to support the phone
Right hand: thumb for I with fingers supporting device.

Then again, my hands are big.. so that might help too

I usually use my left index finger for the Shift and left middle for the Ctrl. (Sometimes I use thumb for the Shift and index for Ctrl.) Yes, it's very awkward and it's a usability problem IMHO.

Your way is better than the one I used: index finger for Ctrl, thumb for Shift. Anyway it is still pain in the *** ;-)

I think you can just tap Ctrl twice and lock it on, then hold down shift and tap anykey at your leisure.

Interesting. I have always struggled like crazy with this when trying to take a snap shot pressing control, shift and p.

i generaly use my left thumb to press ctrl and shift at the same time, it was a bit hit and miss at first but after a bit of practice i now get it 90% of the time,
i do have really big fingers though so for me using 2 fingers or a finger and i thumb together just wont fit,
its a real pain in the a#%e (so my g/f tells me anyway)
