This will be the keyboard layout to start with, not sure if the pic quality is clear enough, as the server compresses the image...
The left D-Pad has been ditched unfortunately, to favour general taste...
There is also some interesting add-on:
- Android home (circle) and task view (square) has been added to the keyboard and back (Triangle) will be merged with esc, basicly they do the same thing.
- Added different shortcuts above number row rather than Fn numbers. The F1/F2 on top right are open for user to map.
- There will be a dedicated camera button act as a shutter because to use camera the slide has to be open

Looking good for a "Powered by Maemo" device.
Like mentioned on another post, initially the slider is angled like the N950, but given the back camera limitation and size control, this structure will be carried over to the real builtin slider phone. (AKA Power by Maemo, if that ever exists...)

Regarding the top row: Why have volume buttons? The phone already has physical volume buttons. Those keys could be better used as other shortcuts, or more function keys.

I take it you mean left-handed as we do not like talking about politics here
I, as a right-handed person, would naturally prefer cursor keys on the right. But, like juiceme, I am not particularly bothered.

Wow, really good to see this. The overall design looks nice.
Also, I doubt people would use the www. and .com keys (I for one would always forget them). In my opition it would be good to have it clean and let the user configure them (maybe to include other characters, like ç, ñ, ß...).

Also I am missing the " | ", quite useful when using commandline

All times are GMT. The time now is 23:01.
And something on topic (short off): Lenovo is planning to release 12 Moto Mods this year and it is going to support Moto Mods for next three years. Looking good for a "Powered by Maemo" device.
