Treo has keyboard, N800 has not. You mean you want to play it with external (bluetooth) keyboard on N800?

Either scummvm need to have true Maemo backend based on GTK instead of current SDL based one (=lot of work and it would look bad) or virtual keyboard need to be implemented inside scummvm (preferably on left/right side in unused space) which is a lot of work too.

If the effort is minor probably it's worth it. Thanks for taking a consideration of the issue anyway.
