I found it when I was reading about Tapwave Zodiac. Really good stuff ;)

Sample text is in Polish, which means "Even the deepest emptiness can find her fill in soul of the happy man". Tried to be poetic :P

It's beta, so there can be some surprises. Should work with other palms.

I've used it on a T|X for over a year. There are issues:
1) It expires from time to time... you have to delete the prefsDB entry and then it works again.
2) The trigger mechanisms don't always work correctly; some work on some devices, some on others.
He has fixed a bug in an earlier version however where bringing up the board in an app with no text entry field and then closing it will cause a reset.

I'm getting a TH, and worried about text input. How well does this work? Can it be accessed at any time?

Works pretty well, but there's no tactile feedback. It can be accessed at virtually any time; not sure how it handles some non-modal dialogs.

I don't need feedback, and it is actually better without me having to not have to push down hard, since I have tendentious in my thumbs (using my UX50 became incredibly painful, keys are hard to push)

I tested out Mini-Keyboard (on my UX) http://www.animatorsoft.com/mini-kbd/index.html

It isn't free, but works great so far.

Have you tested out ThumbBoardDA and virtualthumboard yet? I'd like to know how you think they compare.
