Touch Keyboard SIP - Shh! Don't Tell Apple!

"As great as HTC's Touch interface is on the first level, on the second level it's pure Windows Mobile Professional again which means you have a soft input panel (aka SIP aka keyboard) which is, more or less, not finger-friendly...Well, there is a new finger-friendly keyboard in town called PocketCM Keyboard and it's now available in version 0.5."
This looks really cool - even before the iPhone, I've gotten used to getting around my device using fingers and thumb but when it comes to text input for things like passwords, out comes the stylus. PocketCM has some really nice features, is skinable and supports VGA, but sadly isn't WM2003 compatible (so I can't test this myself - darn). This is still in beta, but the developer's making a lot of progress and new features are being added at a pretty torrid pace. Grab it while it lasts!
