Also, some key assignment issues should be fixed:
(1) Left and Right arrow should be reassigned to Alt+Trackwheel.
That will enable left and right cursor movements while editing an email
(up,down,left,right would work properly).
(Alternatively, make custom key assignment possible)
(2) Thumbwheel click can be assigned to the target-logo key (usually hitting Enter
behaves the same as a thumbwheel click anyway, most people will just intuitively use
that and everything would work fine). The target logo conveniently looks like a wheel,
which reminds people of a trackwheel. So naturally, pressing the target logo could
make it behave like a thumbwheel click.
(Alternatively, make custom key assignment possible)
(3) The Esc key (Back) can be reassigned to the house-logo key, after the left/right
arrow keys are reassigned to cursor movement left/right (same as Alt+Trackwheel up/down)
(Alternatively, make custom key assignment possible)
(4) Delete key on Freedom Keyboard currently does nothing.
This should behave the same as Alt+Backspace on an actual BlackBerry, delete current
character under the cursor (like the PC's "Del" key when editing on a desktop computer)
(5) Holding Alt+backspace should behave the same as Alt+backspace.
Currently it does nothing. It should act as a "Delete" key (rather than backspace)
(6) I know the BlackBerry character set has the cdecil character (Ç) but pressing Alt-F
for that character doesn't work.
(7) There should be a keypress to simulate SYM. This could be done via assigning it to
the TAB key.
Would it be possible to update the keyboard driver to fix these shortcomings? Especially the performance issue?
By the way, here's a good reason to have the left/right behave properly as cursor movement keys instead of Esc/Click presses:
