Does this Windows Mobile iKeyboard look familiar?

Iphone_keyboard_windows_mobile I guess I gave it away in the title, but you'd know what I meant within a nanosecond after seeing this picture anyway. I will say that the standard on-screen keyboards for Windows Mobile have left a bit to be desired, but they have been constrained by the screen size. I would have loved to see a large virtual keyboard on my Toshiba e805 which sported a 4-inch screen, but that screen size was a relative anomaly in its time.

I can't claim this keyboard works any better since I don't need it on my T-Mobile Dash, but if you want to give it a try you can find it on the XDA Developers Forum for free. Note to Samuel: thanks for telling me about this forum; it's a great resource! This application won't analyze your next possible character like the iPhone does, but it is a skin for the Windows Mobile keyboard so you'll still get the native predictive word functions that you normally have.

Didn't someone just post a rant against new WinMo iPhone skins? :P

You must have me confused with the other cartoon head. ;)
