Having to manually select a keyboard for legacy Windows programs

[Scott Brooks]

Picked up my 128GB this morning. I love it so far but I'm having a real problem with the keyboard in desktop mode. I downloaded Alt.Binz and needed to input my account info. I click in a text box and nothing happens. I have to manually slide out the settings, click on keyboard and select "Touch keyboard and writing panel"....every single time! This is a huge pain in the ass. Why doesn't it detect I need a keyboard to type in a legacy Windows program? Makes no sense to me.

Still kind of dumb that it doesn't autodetect it, but you could tap the keyboard icon in the system tray in desktop mode, right?

Yeah I guess so. Thanks for the tip. That eases this a little.
