Default Microth Claviature - Large-Button SIP

http://www.microth.com/claviature/

"Claviature is an innovative text input method combining easy to use large keys and small screen footprint. It provides a comfortable and fast text input for all Pocket PC applications in about 60 world languages."



This looks very cool -- it uses multiple stroking directions to disambiguate what letter you're using. I wonder how well it works in practice -- if anyone tries it, feel free to comment below.

Don't wanna lead this too far off topic, but I really like that it's small and skinnable at the same time. Being a long time FITALY devotee, this one looks interesting also. I'd definitely like to know what others think of it.

As being a real text input junkie ( :lol: ) I just had to try this Claviature thing. And I must say that it looks very promising.
Good thing is the gesting mode. You can make space, backspace, shift and enter on every key. That speeds it up a lot. :lol:
I always come back to Fitaly but that is mainly because of the possibility to work with shortcuts. So you can have predefind text appear in just a few taps. Too bad Claviature doesn't have that but it is already pretty fast after just a couple of minutes of testing.
I keep it on for a while and see if it can keep up with my Fitaly speed.

I've just entered 1 sentence with this keyboard and I must say that it is much easier to learn than fitaly.

Also, Fitaly has a lot of visibility problems, and some special keys are not ideally placed. If only they would allow skinning and positioning of the keys I could make it like I want.

I'll have a look at the skinning functionality in this keyb, but so far it looks promising.
