What software keyboard is this?

Looking at the video, it looks like the default SKB?  I think the key in the video was that the app was waken in portrait mode with the keyboard already open.  It's quite possible that the app was placed in the background in portrait position.

That's a real good test!

Hrm, I can't seem to reproduce, but the droid that I'm using is 2.2; it may have something to do with the slowness to respond.

Can anybody reproduce this with the native UI builds from the birch branch?
