fyi..i am not a coder/programmer, just a tinkerer with wishful thinking and a suggestion.
Those keys are on the far-left side of the N900.

There is a portrait keyboard, it just isn't the same one as comes programmed by default. There's also both commands and packaged widgets (I think) earlier in this thread for switching between one keyboard and the other.
The main point right now is this vkb isn't even that finished yet. As you could've noticed from the screen shot, if this stuff gets finished/updated any time soon, we will have a damn workable keyboard for both portrait and landscape.

Walking or standing on the bus while typing, however, is a joy with the new portrait keyboard (even if it is not finished yet).

I would really like to have a full QWERTY keyboard in portrait mode as well, like the one you find in Opera Mobile. Kudos to w00t and others for finding this and giving us the oppurtunity to test it out!

Is the QWERTY keyboard a part of this yet? I can't find any sort of settings for the app.

hmmm
.....i didnt mean am texting all the time when am driving....But at some times like when we need to type a "OK" or "Call u later","in 5 mins" kind of very short msgs(which i dont think will effect our driving).....a portrait keyboard is very useful...
Using the phone always in landscape mode is also a problem for many users....
Hey but this in n900/maemo....we can do any thing right???
