Changing the keys of the on-screen qwerty

Hi there and Merry Christmas!
Being a proud HD owner for two days now I noticed that the layout of the on-screen qwerty (qwertz in my case) is unfortunately not really "smilie friendly"
Due to the German language using such funny letters as ä, ö, ü and ß, the parentheses got moved to the symbol page.
Does anyone know how to change the 2nd-function layout of the keyboard?
Maybe there is even a chance to not only get parentheses back into the game but also make a whole character string just by pressing one button. Like a smilie key
Down below you can see the qwertz standard and "smilie" version.
So far it's only photoshop...

Hello,
I'm also interestd in this remapping...
Any idea to change the attribution of the 2nd function (long push) ???
Thanks...

Special characters shortcut

Hi
Is it possible to make longpressing a character on the keyboard use a character of my choice? rather than bringing up a menu where I have to click on the screen to choose character?
Example:
I want to use the character Å (A with a ring over it, its in the norwegian alphabet)
I longpress A, and that gives me a menu on the screen with Â, Ã, Ä and Å, and I have to click one of those!
Instead I want to set my own characters like this:
Longpress A = Å (A-ring)
Longpress E = Æ (AE)
Longpress O = Ø (O-line)
I dont know if this exists or even if it is possible, but it would be a great timesaver!

This would indeed be very useful. Request seconded.

Third
Just as a tip for my fellow norwegians, since aa (a with ring above) is the key that is most to use, I usually just copy that letter and just paste it when I need it later, and long press o to got oe and then press enter, and for ae I just long press a and use the scroll wheel to move one field down and then press enter.
Not sure if this works for you, but I manage just fine with this approach. The only thing that annoys me is the lack of support for foreign keys in the android browser.

How to type "\"??

Hello, everyone!!
There is a key for "/" on the English keyboard of my TD2, but I don't see any key for "\". How can I type it?

with full qwerty keyboard tap 12# and then tap 1/2

Thank you!! I found it!!

request: special chars with longpress on Droid/Milestone HW Keyboard

Hi There!
I (and I think a lot of others too) would be interested in something like a hack/mod/app ...whatever is needed for the hardware keyboard of the Motorola Droid aka Milestone.
You get a selection of special characters when you long press a key.
e.g. a long press of "o" offers you ó ò ö and some more over a popup on the screen.
But in German we only have 4 special characters: ü ä ö and ß
So, it would be much more useful that if you long press "o", that you get a "ö" directly without having to choose it on the screen.
o => ö, O => Ö
a => ä, A => A
u => ü, U => Ü
s => ß
Is this possible?
(I hope you can even see the special characters in this post)

Yes. Does anyone know if this could be done?
All Scandinavians could use this too.
For Norwegians the following would be nice:
o > ø
a > å
e > æ
There are so damned many å's in our language that I have to keep holding and tapping the screen all the time, it really defeats the purpose of having a great hardware keyboard.
