This thread is very misleading, I was thinking oh who leaked the source code??

Yeah, I had a little wonder-if-it's-been-leaked moment, lol. Though given the normal threads on this forum lately, I wasn't getting my hopes up too much.

Because people are too lazy, or too busy, to learn how to code, and those in this community who DO know how to develop have better things to do.
*Sigh* My offer to throw large amounts of money (well, probably under a hundred dollars, and I hope others would contribute, but still, I wouldn't mind at this point) to anyone who knows Hildon well enough to pickup the system-wide portrait keyboard - http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=55371 - and finish it to a workable state with both QWERTY and T9-like input (not necessarily predictive or error correcting, just reasonably usable) still stands.

Because people are too lazy

Well, what if we unite all the open source community and work towards the common goal of bringing technology to everyone..
Even nokia is getting into this just to make money which will definetly be the ultimate reason for any corporate.. what if we change it..
right now am using it to type it.. its good actually than having anything at all..
Though Opera is designed with capacitive screen in mind, it works great with our beloved N900 screen. B)
and for the suggestions, i mean dictionary we can implement the kind in Windows Phone 7.. Which again is just a solution, but can be of anything..
