Best Virtual onscreen keyboard for Tablet PC

[Cauvery]

Hello all. I am making a small project on virtual onscreen keyboards for Ultra-Mobile PC (UMPC) and Tablet PC. But I am not that much into the virtual onscreen keyboard, so I don’t posses much information regarding them. So, I wanted to know which are the best available virtual onscreen keyboards for UMPC and tablet PC. If anyone is using any, or if anyone is having any information regarding this, then please feel free to post your quality comments on my thread.

You are already provided with Windows On-screen keyboard. But if you wish to use some third party application for the same purpose, then I would recommend you to try on the Hot Virtual Keyboard. It has got number of latest features which will make it easier, faster and much more accurate to perform on-screen typing. Thus you will be able to make optimum use of your Touch-screen device. You get so many features for free as the Hot Virtual Keyboard is free. It also supports almost all the International languages.

I am using Comfort onscreen Keyboard application in my computer which is running Windows XP Operating System to display a very different virtual keyboard on the screen. The application also makes it possible for the user to use the mouse pointer or the touch-screen, similar to the way you are using the normal hardware keyboard. This virtual onscreen keyboard helps in decreasing the strain on your eyes and neck, as it eliminates the issue of always moving eyes from keyboard to monitor and vice versa. It also support shortcut references, thus making it possible to use the keyboard much more effectively and faster.
