It's better to use the CAB files to install, there are some instructions included.
Works great both on my HP 6915 and Axim x51v, thanks 
EDIT:

"press" event on finger lifted? I wonder what does this mean  |

it means: like in iPhone where you can slide over keyboard and the key is "pressed" (i.e. sent) once user lifts the finger. |

Ciao,
I'm not sure that is a good idea - it would disable the possibility of having autorepeat (eg. when you press and hold a key it appears several times at a well dfined interval)
Also, the standard way of having keys inserted in the text is at key down (eg. check your desktop computer, even the standard MS sip).
So I think this is why they did it this way.
