Agreed. I type in Dvorak and have an iPhone. The brain doesn't see desktop and mobile typing in the same way. I actually type faster and much more naturally in QWERTY on the iPhone than on a proper keyboard.
I'd love to see Apple ship a Dvorak layout with the iPhone, but I think one of the big barriers is how the iPhone keyboard is normally laid out.
Dvorak has two extra letters on the bottom row and more punctuation on top. In QWERTY they get rid of the punctuation on the bottom row and put shift and delete in the extra space.
Look how ugly — and how much less usable — this is: http://kasperowski.com/2009/03/iphone-dvorak-for-real.html http://kasperowski.com/2009/03/iphone-dvorak-for-real.html
To do it properly they would have to move shift and delete to the top row...
