Video: Pre virtual keyboard developing rapidly, gets easy install method

We know you just can't wait to get typing on the Pre's lush touchscreen, and the folks at WebOS Internals must feel the same way as they've been hard at work making their on-screen keyboard a functional reality. Installation has been made a breeze thanks to the Preware app, and usability seems to have improved markedly since the pre-alpha version, but a few kinks remain that need to be ironed out. Still, if you're willing to put up with some buggy behavior and the potential for your Pre to melt into a puddle of fiery lava, then slide past the break to get educated on the how, what and where to download.

Cupcake's on-screen keyboard shown on T-Mobile G1


We already found that the Cupcake branch of Android made available a software keyboard on Nokia's line of Internet Tablets, and now that very functionality is being showcased on a bona fide T-Mobile G1. We can't say how stoked we are to see a real deal on-screen keyboard on the handset, and we're even more jazzed about the eventual release of these caloric goodies to the masses. Have a look yourself at the vid just after the break.
