Free Virtual Keyboard is a free, lightweight, multilingual and finger friendly virtual keyboard.
Free Virtual Keyboard works on any Windows based UMPC with a passive touchscreen (Ultra-mobile PC, Tablet PC and Panel PC). If you spend a lot of time responding to e-mail or jotting down notes on your mobile computer and find your hardware keyboard awkward or too small, a screen software keyboard may be just the improvement you've been seeking. This handy keyboard has keys large enough to be typed with the fingertips.
Also Free Virtual Keyboard allows people with mobility impairments to type data by using a pointing device.
Change size, color and transparency of keyboard on the computer screen
You can change size, color and transparency of keyboard with one click at any time. In full-screen mode virtual keyboard automatically resizes to fit the width of the screen when invoked. This means it works in both landscape and portrait orientation, something other keyboard does not do.
Auto-repeat function
The autorepeat function (any key held down to repeat same character continuously) is automatic. All relevant keys would auto-repeat when pressed continuously.
Run it from your portable USB flash drive
Free Virtual Keyboard is a totally portable application, meaning that you can put it on any USB stick and run it directly from there. In this way, your interactive keyboard will always be with you.
The settings are stored in the FreeVK.ini file located in the program installation folder. If it's impossible, settings are stored in the registry.

Comments and Reviews
Perfect except for one detail: When you press Shift on your keyboard, this software will not take it into account, so when you're using the virtual keyboard just to remind you where your keys are, it's less practical for special characters. You have to press the shift button with your mouse.
