System Keyboard for PRS505/300

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Started porting the App-keyboards used in Frotz/Calendar/CLI into a general 
system-keyboard.
Main goal is to speed up typing. 
Using 10 keys in a row, so that the numeric-buttons can be used for input too. 
Size to change between normal and shifted
JoyPad to navigate, mainly UP/DOWN,
Center/HoldCenter to select,
Num-Key/holdNumKey to select key/bring up a popup with additional characters.

Will be put in a separate view in main.xml, and core1-script. (Like prspPopUp)

Possibilities: implementation of Search, to be used in dictionary and Apps.

Still to decide: 
Where should the key go?
Into a input-field in the keyboard context, or into a control in the container?

What should happen if OK is pushed?
I think it should bubble or call a function bound to the keyboard.

See how it looks like in the SIM:
