Type without Clicking?

is there a way to type on the keyboard without actually clicking the screen in? just by touch?

Hello,

 

The "Press" function is by design and is the only way to type and launch application.

Sure, use an iPhoneIt is a feature/selling-point of the Storm, not user customizable.

There must be some way of doing a certain amount of the touch screen stuff on the Storm.  The amAze GPS app does it.  (Not to argue any of the statements made above, of course - just food for thought)

I'm not familiar with the amAze GPS app, but all other apps and functionality require an actual "click" to initiate a command.  You can touch the screen and it will "do stuff", but it won't activate or perform any command until it's pressed.

Re: Type without Clicking?

Would be a great app for someone to create, besides being a little slow the typing is my only real complaint with the Storm.
