You can change how the two keyboards come up in text-input settings. The larger one is likely set to open on "finger" touch, where it comes up if your n810 thinks you are selecting a text box with a...

Re: Ur Fav OS + Word Processor combo

Well, VI and Emacs are both really powerful editors that are quite stable on vanilla maemo, but they are more 'text editors' than 'word processors.' Also they have a learning curve that you may not...

Re: Flash on Mobile

Averaging 21-22 (out of 24) fps on my n810. Most flash applications probably won't run that well on an n810 but it's fun to play with the homescreens and pretend I'm running maemo 5. Good work.
