I do a lot of data entry with handbase. I have a tungsten C, but this could correlate to any handheld with a thumbpad.

When I go to a number field (either integer or real) it would be real nice if handbase shifted the thumbpad into numlock mode so I don't have to double press or press and hold the option button before entering numbers.

When entering an address in palm address book, if you enter a number or zip code, you don't have to put the thumbpad in numlock mode. The OS intuits that since you're in a number field, it sets the thumbpad to put in numbers and not letters.

I have called DDH about this and they admitted their software cannot do it. I suggest that simply because of the popularity of the treo (both palm and windows versions), they should consider this minor addition to their featureset.
