A full 5-row keyboard including arrow and Esc/Ctrl keys, intended for tablets.
Are you missing the key layout you’re used to from your computer? This keyboard has separate number keys, punctuation in the usual places, and arrow keys. It is based on the AOSP Gingerbread soft keyboard, so it supports multitouch for the modifier keys.
This keyboard is especially useful if you use ConnectBot for SSH access. It provides working Tab/Ctrl/Esc keys, and the arrow keys are essential for devices such as the Xoom [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]tablet[/COLOR][/COLOR] or Nexus S that don’t have a [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]trackball[/COLOR][/COLOR] or D-Pad.

Known issues include:
- Localization for the keyboard layout is incomplete, currently the Spanish, Finnish, Lao, Romanian, and Thai are only localized in 4-row mode and show the English QWERTY layout in 5-row mode.
- Some languages and layouts may not be usable on [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]your [COLOR=blue !important]phone[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR] if it lacks the necessary fonts.
- Right-to-left languages (Arabic, Hebrew) are apparently not fully supported on pre-Honeycomb devices, YMMV.
- Many applications don’t react to additional keys since they aren’t programmed to handle them.
The permissions requested by the application are those needed by the underlying Gingerbread keyboard. It uses the contacts information for completion of names and [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]email [COLOR=blue !important]addresses[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR], and audio recording for the voice input feature.
