Many have been talking of Android G1 lacking an on-screen keyboard. All you guys! No need to talk and worry about that issue anymore. An on-screen QWERTY keyboard for G1 would be launched in the first quarter of next year.
You’ll be able to do all those nice sort of things like emails, instant messaging and on-handed texting from the screen.
The only major concern about virtual on-screen keyboard remains its speed. People have found that there is a little delay while using dialer; moreover G1 doesn’t support multitouch like iPhone. But surely the on-screen soft keyboard would be a great relief for all those who are sick of opening their G1 all the time for doing their typing tasks.

HKC Pearl is a cool looking smartphone which would be running Android most probably.
