SetSIP - Changing SIP (software keyboard) type is both cumbersome (that small finger unfriendly arrow near the SIP icon) and slow (the selection menu does not pop up for a noticeable time). Worse on Topaz (Diamond 2) the menu has 2 levels: one for selecting between Touch Input full QWERTY and Phone Keypad and one for selecting other SIP types. SetSIP allows to change the SIP, including the two Touch Input layouts from a shortcut.
SetSIP was developed for HTC Topaz (Diamond 2) with WM6.1 and requires Compact Framework 2 or above. It should work on many other phones but the test is up to you. Touch Input layouts selection make sense only on phones with Touch Input / EzInput.

Pocket PC 2002, Windows Mobile 2003, Windows Mobile 5.0, Windows Mobile 6 Classic, Windows Mobile 6 Professional, Windows Mobile 6.1 Classic, Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional
