If I told you that the Orange Key is now referred to as the Opt Key... would that help?

Use preware instead. You don't have to connect to your phone every single time. You can install apps. themes, tweaks and patches. Save you the hassle of always having to connect the ol 'ball and chain' (usb) to your computer.

I used preware to install virtual keyboard. It asks you to install a seperate package as well.
Simply open up preware, then type virtual, hit enter and the search should pop up virtual keyboard.

i had preware installed on my pre and had to do a factory reset to get the phone reactivated. The reset erased preware on my pre and I cannot reinstall it through webos quickinstall. It does not show up in the webos internals all feed. Any ideas on how I can find it to reinstall it?
