I seem to be stuck in an endless loop. I want to configure PCMKeyboard, but whenever I try, it says that I can't configure unless PCMKeyboard is the current SIP. So I try setting it as the current SIP, but for some reason my PDA immediately switches the SIP back to regular keyboard. The PDA won't let me choose the PCMKeyboard because it isn't configured, but the keyboard can't be configured because the PDA won't let me choose it. It's a Catch-22.

I use a T-Mobile MDA with Windows Mobile 5.

Thanks in advance for your help.

me to, after your update in topic "What happens after november 1st ?" i try download again. and then I cannot use the PCMkeyboard. it keep choosing default keyboard.

first of all: can someone explain me the origin of the "catch-22" expression?

regarding pcm: soft reset, make sure the uninstall says that 0.11b is installed, remove all today plugin and try to select the keyboard (from the list that appear after clicking on the little triangle in the bottom of the screen, not from keyboard settings).

i'm doing excatly like you said

"regarding pcm: soft reset, make sure the uninstall says that 0.11b is installed, remove all today plugin and try to select the keyboard (from the list that appear after clicking on the little triangle in the bottom of the screen, not from keyboard settings)."

but still nothing happen.

then I try this,

choose Letter Recognizer
then choose PCMkeyboard

then it automatically choose Keyboard

by the way, I'm using HTC Touch

Thanks for asking this question. It's a phrase I've heard (and used) all my life, and I never understood its origin. So I just did a bit of research.

First, in American English a "catch" is a limitation that reduces the scope of a promise or offer, usually in a way that makes the promise or offer meaningless. For example: "I'll give you this hundred-dollar watch for free! There's only one catch: You aren't allowed to actually wear it." When someone makes a promise or offer that sounds too good to be true, it is common to ask, "What's the catch?"

In 1961 a novelist named Joseph Heller wrote what is now a classic novel called "Catch-22." It was based on a fictional character in the American Military who was astonished by all of the paradoxes he saw there. The worst paradox was rule #22, which he called "Catch-22." For more details, see this Wikipedia article [en.wikipedia.org] . The phrase is now used to mean any kind of paradoxical situation that is "no-win" or a "double bind" or uses "circular logic."

any updates?

just now I tried again.

1. download again for today from pocketcm.com
2. install
3. select PCMkeyboard like previous post

it's works...
