some of my keyboard doesn;t correspond to what the been printed?
any chance to remap it?
That's some excellent question. I know I saw a prg for the PDA2K.. but not for the JJ. I would love to Remap the 'SYM' keyboard button to CTRL or ALT... I know there's a program that may simulate certain keys.. but you need a way to MAP the keyboard button to execute it (i think..mm)
The PQz program does this (and more) very nicely!

Has anybody worked out if the keyboard has a Ctrl key or a function that works like Ctrl , handy when quitting apps eg Ctrl Q.
Or editing.
I couldnt find it when I used the device.
Cheers
That's very strange because I have it on my MDA II's touchscreen keyboard. Are you talking about the touchscreen keyboard that you have to pop up by pressing the up arrow in the lower right-hand corner in the Messages app for instance?
I wonder whether this feature would also be ROM-dependent.
i meant the hard keyboard not sip. its on sip but when i used the universal i couldnt see it.
Yes I am interested in the Ctrl button on the universal as well, I owned a XDAIIs and found the keyboard on that didn't have the Ctrl key either so you can't do CUT/COPY or paste unless there is another way. I cut and paste heaps so the keyboard was useless to me on the XDAIIs.
Any one know if there is another way to do this on the Universal Keyboard.
what a wind up this is, cant believe they missed the ctrl button off the proper keyboard.
The keyboard has Cut/copy/paste function, so I am happy.
Jasjar is the most awesome PPC Phone yet.
there is a screen tap key (a bit like the right mouse click key on a full computer) this brings up the menu option, with copy and cut in it !! then you can just pres the relevant letter on the keyboard, thus having the same effect (ie press a function key then C or T or V).
PS its Fn [Space] key
cool... i wondered what that key did! that is useful!
[ctrl] is used for more things than copy+paste.
I use my Exec to communicate with *NIX servers using Pocket PuTTY. [ctrl] is kind of essential.
Agree, using putty is a nightmare without a ctrl key. Is there any way of mapping another key to do the same function
another experince that i want to share. to make it easy while using the two keys and the keyboard. you can use Hot Keys for example:
at File Explorer if you want to copy file press menu key then press "i" button then press "C" button.
thats all :lol:

Wish they had put a "ctrl" key on the keyboard though. The JASJAR is no use with Putty for controlling *nix machines without being able to do ctrl+c or ctrl+d etc.

I agree, a CTRL key would be useful. Perhaps it's possible to remap a key on the keyboard to perform the functions of CTRL? For example, I never use the caps lock key so that would be ideal. Perhaps I'll look into this, been playing with the .NET compact framework quite a lot recently.
I had a try with AEKMap but it couldn't send the correct key code.
The code for ctrl is 0011

If you could figure this out you'd be my hero. The lack of a ctrl key is bugging me.
Does anybody knows if it posible to change the assinment of the keys on the keyboard?
I would like to change the Windows Startbutton into CTRL, So i can easy use CTRL C and CTRL V.
Do i have to change the keybddr.dll for it?
Not to be a "me 2"er, but I am looking to swap the comma and period. They're on the same key, but I have to use the "Option" button (round dot) to get a comma. Well, when I'm option-locked and typing numbers, I use the period a lot more than when I'm typing letters. I'd like to see a way to simply swap those two functions on that key.
Changing Map
Guys,
I´m from Brazil and in my portuguese keyboard I had an issue with comma an period keys.
I´ve used the AEKMap program to remap my keyboard. On google, type aekmap an the link will come.
Here are the settins i used.

big ups!
Is it possible to use a "Ctl" key function on the slideout keyboard. It is on the software one, but a bit of a pain having to bring it up if you are using the slide out.

Theres a program called PQZ that will let you remap keyboard keys to ctrl, alt, or whatever.
Anyone knows how can I preform copy/cut/paste when using the hardware keyboard without going to the soft button in application that support that or using the stylus ?
I found that using the "Shift" with the right/left arrows will select the text but can't continue from here.
Thanks
Anyone ??? , It's annoying to get the stylus just for that when typing text....
Yah it would be nice to find a way to do this. Maybe someone can map copy/cut/paste to a keypress combinatiom?
I think VJKeyPress can emulate copy and paste, but the better solution is to use PHM's tools to emulate copy/paste. However, due to the fact that you're emulating a keypress (ctrl+c) while pressing another hardware key, from memory it used to confuse the system a little. But give it a go.
