My off-screen keyboard serves me just fine, thank you :) But, if you ever need to e.g. hold your three week old son in one hand and type a message at the same time with the laptop keyboard just out of reach of the other hand… :) Well, never mind the reason, the Ubuntu repository includes (and installs by default) an on-screen keyboard – onboard.

There’s a full keyboard with function keys and numeric keypad (toggled by a single click) and there are even a few nice additions – a set of 9 snippet/macro keys, 4 keyboard layouts and a scanning key selection. More than I need anyway :)
