Hello,
When I want to enter text in the text box of Schedule SMS, my keyboard goes entirely on top of the text box, and I can't see what I write when I write it.
Here is what I see:
In order to fix this, I have to change to a smaller keyboard, and then I can see some of the text box:
Is there a way for you to allows us to work with bigger keyboards, and still see some of the text box ?, using small devices like the HTC Touch Diamond it is really important to have a big keyboard otherwise you can't type with your fingers...
Thanks for your great software.

Hi Noam, Thanks for the feedback. In the final version, we're going to move the message to the top and the date/time/recipient fields to the bottom. That should solve the problem. Please let me know if you have any more problems or comments.

Planning to release final version sometime next week. Here's a preview of this specific fix:

That's great. You do realize though that in order to set the clock you also need the keyboard (and the clock will be behind the keyboard, according to the image you posted of the final version). Maybe you can use a clock that can be set by finger without use of the keyboard ?, Thumbcal uses something like this: If you don't want to do this, another option is just to move the clock box to be near the text box, and move the "When to send" title below the clock box. This way you could see the clock and keyboard at the same time. Actually I think you can let go of the "When to send" title completely.

Here is what I had in mind (look how you can see the clock, text box, and keyboard all at the same time):

Well, all good ideas. However, moving a label below the field is inconsistent.
I believe you can set the date and time using the d-pad (after closing the on-screen keyboard). Give that a try on your Diamond.

Yes I know what you mean about inconsistency, that's why I suggested losing the "When to send" title completely (because it's obvious that's the reason for the clock and date). Alternatively you can write above the text box: "Message and when to send:", it will be obvious that the "when to send" part is for the lower box. Indeed I can set the clock with the capacitive D-pad of the diamond, which is great. Only annoyance is (or more correctly, will be, once the layout will be changed for the final version), once you press the clock, the keyboard jumps out immediately, and you have to get rid of it before you can set the clock with the D-pad...

Ok, I agree that the consistency in this case is not worth the annoyance. I'll fix it :)
