Description
imo the internal gui's keyboard should be at least qwerty, not simply a-z. i append a small patch. btw: toggling between upper case and lower case seems pretty much an overkill, upper _or_ lower case should be sufficient (every special char/umlaut exists in bose cases, even the stupid german sz ligature "ß").

if that gets implemented, please make it configurable. A qwerty keyboard requires more characters in one row than the abcd one, which may become a problem when operating a QVGA-portrait device with bare fingers.

I don't see the benefit of a qwerty keyboard here. The case is mostly useful for bookmarks naming.

I'm closing the ticket (because i'm not convinced about the use of qwerty) but feel free to reopen (and argument ;) )

I feel a qwerty keyboard is better. Most people are already familiar with qwerty keyboards, esp with the rise of tweeter and text messaging on qwerty soft-keyboards. it takes me far longer to type even a city name on a ABC keyboard than on a qwerty one. This would not be so bad if Navit supports the use of the device's soft-keyboard, but Navit is pretty bad in this area as well.
