The gang over at webOS Internals (http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Main_Page) didnt stop once they got the on-screen keyboard working for the Pre. Theyve continued trucking along, tweaking and modifying the hack to the point that its becoming quite usable. In the latest update (version 0.2.2 (http://forums.precentral.net/web-os-development/198051-screen-keyboard-bugs-functionality-enhancements-30.html#post1903586)), the keyboard has gained the ability to change themes on the fly (and includes a classy default theme out-of-the-virtual-box) have themes dynamically change (e.g. hitting Shift gets you an all CAPS keyboard, tapping orange switches everything to the alternate characters). Additionally, Pre owners on Bell Mobility should find that the virtual keyboard now works for them as well.
The installation instructions for the on-screen keyboard havent changed, so hop on over to our original post on the keyboard for directions (http://www.precentral.net/screen-virtual-keyboard-go-mere-mortals).
