Lock numeric key

[mheng]

Hi,

I purchased this product for one main reason: for entering numbers in spreadsheets. The "Arrows Style" allow the desire numeric key pad for entering numbers but it always return to ABC mode after pressing the enter key. A user (Jan) requested this same feature back on Sun Jan 09 2011. I'm a bit discourage that this feature has not been updated in the version I downloaded in August.

Also, in that Excel usage context, the arrow keys really need to be functional while entering a number. Because moving down to the next cell is not always the desire direction in the spreadsheet that I want to go. A functional arrow key will give me the option to move in the desire direction.

I really appreciate the feature "Enter sends message" as I have sent way too many messages prematurely with the enter key. An "Enter back to ABC" mode would be nice. Or "Persistent Numeric key" similar to "Persistent domain key". Please consider updating this feature as I use Excel on my phone extensively and this feature would save me a lot of time.

Thanks.

Very good suggestion!

That are the same problems that I have too!

I hope there will come an update soon

Yes, I'd love that too!

Sometimes when I enter IP numbers the keyboard reverts to ABC when I hit the period ( . ) key.
The possibility to add a 5th dedicated row with numbers on the main keyboard would make this problem less annoying.
