Eh? Does your on-screen keyboard not show you the shifted version of each button in a lighter colour above the main button? Mine has '1' above 'Q', '!' above 'A', '_' above 'Z', etc. Trying to type on the thing would be excruciating without those.

I think this is Froyo (but maybe the keyboard is an application independent of the OS version?).
