Yeah yeah its another portrait keyboard post.

So now that Jonwil figured out the backends of the stock vkb, he wants to know if its worth to clone the N900 stock vkb and include portrait mode support.

I know there are several portrait vkbs already in the wild like FastSMS, but its slow and others prefer the stock vkb. And yeah we have a hardware keyboard that we can use but there are times when we need a portrait keyboard.

So this thread is sort of an attempt to convince him. cmon guys!

I don't even have a N900, but I'll put my support as a dowant... this seriously would have kept me on the N900 when I had it.

great idea +1
nothing more annoying than using my n900 in portrait mode only to realise i need to enter a few letters which means i have to use the full keyboard (which needs two hands) or trying to use the force rotated keyboard which is so cramped

also would it be possible to have a way to activate it without a text field for things like searching in the media player or application manager?

Hi there, +1 for me. The fact that the stock vkb rotates and is semi useable is a real tease, I would love proper portrait vkb support.
