Topic: What if Chumby Chat used numeric keypad?

I was just playing around with the Chumby Chat a few minutes ago and started thinking about the interface. What if this widget borrowed a page from the Opera browser on the Nintendo Wii and used a numeric keypad similar to texting on a cellphone? this would allow one to hold it in both hands and comfortably send messages.
