Just press the key in the middle of the 4 arrow keys (I think it is
called the home key). When you are in a place where the virtual
keyboard can be used, this will display the full virtual
keyboard. Other than the fact that you don't see the full screen, I
find it very practical for typing text.

I often used it in conjunction with remember,and to type the odd
email. Way more useful than the iTouch keyboard.

how are you trying to get it?
