What keys on the keyboard do each of the hardware joypad keys correspond to? Are Up/Down/Left/Right Up/Down/Left/Right on the keyboard? What are the triangle/square/etc keys?

Correct for u/d/l/r.
X is confirm, like you tap highlighted item.
Circle is back.
Triangle and square doesn't do anything in UI.
Key code value and Android key code constant for xPlay here if you need more details:

Could anyone explain what is the "QKeyLedOnOff" registry key for?
How do I make the Backlight button work for the QWERTY buttons as well? I mean when I press that key, I get the keyboard lights up rather than just the screen!!
Hi,
I consider it a rather big design omission of the Universal that there are no hardware keys next to the screen, to work as key 1 and 2 for the menus, when the device is used in portrait mode.
Is it possible to map the keys on the side (answer and ignore phone) as the keys for left and right menu?
Thanks.
I like to emulate the stylus select and hold with the device keyboard. How can I do it?
I don't know about the keyboard, but you can assign a hardware key to show the context menu, or use VJKeyPress I think.

how about "Fn + Space" ??
Is there Fn key on Wizard?
buzz
there isn't an "FN" key but there is a key with a dot on it that works as an "FN" key would. And i just tried it and space, along with enter and ok and no luck.
I'm the only one that like to open the context menu with the device keyborad? :lol:
I hold the central button of the d-pad to do that.
Not so far the keyboard...

How is the keyboard tactile feedback? Can you type without quickly getting your fingers tired? Is it backlit?
Are number keys intelligent
unlike Jasjar/ Universal I do not see any dedicated number keys at the top row. Are the number keys intelligent to automatically identify number fields or do I have to press some function or blue key etc to activate numbers?

That's very surprising...Not backlit!?!? However, when you consider that it has a whopping 5" screen glaring down onto the keyboard, you may also see that there is no point in backlighting the keys.
After using the keyboard, I can say that not having backlit is not an issue at all as there is already a hugh torchlight (the screen) shinning on it. The feel and feedback is also acceptable. The biggest weakness is the way keys are set out.
1. there should be a row of number key in addition to the keypad style layout.
2. the numeric keypad should have followed the computer and calculator style (with 7 8 9 on top and 123 at the bottom) instead of mobile phone format (where 123 is on top and 789 is at the bottom). The commonly used spreadsheet/calculator symbols such as + - * / ( ) are normally used at the sakme time. The should be activated by the same special function key. The should be laid out to be as logically as possible rather than all over the place as currently the case.
3. The most common punctuation marks should be accessable without having to first press shift or special function key abd should be tyoed by the right hand. All other punctuation marks and special characters should have been activated in the sane way as capital letters.i.e. via the shift key. In other word, when the shift key is pressed, we should be able to access all symbols and capital letters. It is radiculos to have to keep switching between pressing the shift key and special function key now.
4. the letter Z must go directly below A to have any chance of fast typing. All keyboards are done that way except this one.
In my next posting, I'll show my preferred keyboard layout.
This might help. Lots of opinions on the keyboard, and some suggestions on alternatives.

Is there any keyboard for WP on HD2 with directional keys like in winmo? It is hard to navigate or even edit without arrow keys... Or even better Swype keyboard...
