keyboard in the search option (721)

[SParker]

someone mentioned this before but I can't find it, how do you get the onscreen keyboard to come up with the search feature on the 721

Go to the search screen, arrow over the the box where you type in your search and push the select button which then brings up the on screen keyboard.

Over the last few days I notice a mouse curser shaped like a I on my search screen. Anyone else seeing this?

Yes, I see the same thing. This feature will be more useful after they enable the arrow keys :)

While I don't have a 721, I know enough (even though you don't think I know anything) to know they probably just didn't make sure to get rid of the mouse cursor everywhere. It seems like this system is just using good old XFree86, and of course, every day - DISH is "forgetting" about the GPL. Darn DISH, DARN YOU DISH!
