Couldn't see any down arrow for getting rid of the on screen keyboard

Shall try tomorrow again to see if i could find anything to get rid of it

There is often some option that can interfere with something else, earlier I was complaining because despite my best efforts my tablet was not recognised by my PC, but after I found a setting called 'enable debugging on USB' and turned it off my tablet connected without any problem and can be read and edited like any other drive. :d2:

Okey dokey Horus, if I find a way before your keyboard arrives I'll let you know

When the engineer was here today he had to reset my Android with the old modem till the new one arrives, he did a search for me to try & get rid of the on screen keyboard but couldn't find anything

Found a way to get rid of on screen keyboard, don't know if its the same for everyone's tablet but mine is Go to Settings > Language & Keyboard > you have a choice of On screen keyboard or Android keyboard > I ticked on Android keyboard & it took me to another menu where I have a few choices such as > Auto-Capitalization > Sound on keypress etc etc ...

Much easier with my mini keyboard & mouse than the On screen/touch keyboard.

Problem solved then Kiya As is so often the case, the solutions are there but hidden away in menus somewhere..

On another tablet topic, I see that Apple have introduced a mini ipad with 7.9" screen. I always did think that the 10" screen was rather large for a 'portable' device. My Archos is also 7.9" and I find that size is perfectly adequate.

I discovered that as soon as I plugged my mini keypad in to my tablet it disabled the onboard keypad which was handy.
I have just been having a look at the new Windows 8 operating system which works across PC and tablet formats and I must say it looks quite impressive. Not so sure I would want it on my laptop or PC as a touch screen version though, too messy on a larger screen, all those finger prints, although it does support being used with a mouse and keyboard.

Oh Horus you were supposed to let us know "how to as soon as your keyboard arrived"

Let you off this time knowing your very busy with our tutorials
