I'd like to be able to use my android keyboard to type in xbmc. Currently I have to use the onscreen one with remote control UI, when I am using search functions. I'm a developer and I'd be up for doing some coding. I just thought I'd post and see if anyone else is working on it and if the event server is capable?
Anyone know?
XBMC WTF!

All info. regarding this subject is summed up
overhere.

I currently use gmote for the keyboard and the XBMC remote app for the remote, it does involve switching but it's not that bad.
I love the way the boxee app automaticlly opens the keyboard when it's time to input text on the screen, if xbmc could also do this that would be a great plus.

This should be a feature request (use android keyboard to control xbmc) in the android app topic. Is there already one?
