We wanted Mars and we got the end of files.

Yes, we still have files and we still have the keyboard. Actually, even worse than the keyboard is that we have a QWERTY on phones. How about we come up with a better idea for input on the phone?

yes, we had atomix and fitaly layouts when we had Palm and PocketPC - but with iOS en Android they have left the building. There's an unofficial unlicensed version... and there is Swype, a mashup would be ideal. http://mkiishooter.blogspot.nl/search/label/Fitaly http://www.redmondpie.com/set-swype-on-iphone-as-default-key...
