Is there an on screen keyboard for texting? Also does texting work in portrait mode?

what device are we talking about?

N900 has OSKbd for landscape but not for portrait yet.

Yes, there is a on screen keyboard. Though there's no support for portrait mode yet (what I know).

At the moment, what has been gathered from the firmware sent to reviewers is that there are no other portrait-mode supporting applications except for the dialer and the call log.

But that's for dialing only.

According to conversations.nokia.com there will probably be a portrait mode for N900

It has letters a to z from what I can see? Why would they be there just for dialing?

Yes, so as to make it easier to dial 1-800-FOO-BARS or what have you. That dialing pad is not available in Conversations, the application used for SMS. In Conversations, you may use the hardware or virtual keyboard, both landscape only.
