Just wondering if its possible to make virtual keyboard row only for numbers- e.g. having the regular keyboard opened and "number" keys added on touch screen?

Great idea. That would be really handy - especially if it also had a couple of the most-used special keys that aren't on the physical keyboard. (An example on the N810 is the tab key.) I hope this can be done.

Nokia made a design decision to keep the keyboard small so that the reach to the screen is short (because input happens on the screen too). I hope they revisit this decision with the next product and give us a keyboard with AT LEAST 4 rows.

4 rows? I think 3 is just perfect. It'll get too big otherwise.

To borland: that's a great idea, you should be able to modify it though & put any key that you use regularly.
