Anyone else having issues with the size of the virtual keyboard? Seems like it would be a no brainer to update software to allow texting to adjust with the accelerometer.

And you know what? You're the very first person who has ever thought of this. Wow. I would love SMS to have a horizontal keyboard because not only is it easier to type on a bigger keyboard, but it's easier to hold the phone while laying down... it's really awkward to hold it while it in portrait mode.

Wow, I always thought this already exists. I thought I saw screen shots of a horizontal keyboard on the iPhone? Am I thinking of another application or something?

Yes... it is. Certain apps have a horizontal keyboard.

Safari is the ONLY Apple-made iPhone app with a Horizontal keyboard
A lot of 3rd party Apps now have it, but you'll have to find those.

Or you could be nice to a newbie and just tell me which apps are best!:D
