Why POUND? If you can get a virtual "key" to respond to the weight of a finger dropped when relaxed, it's jut a matter of adjusting your conception of what a keyboard is.
If anything what's wrong with a keyboard on a screen is that there is no physical feedback of the extremities of the actual keys. I can put my hands on my actual keyboard without looking, find the home keys with the bumps on F and J and type for hours without looking, because with each keystroke I can adjust the position of my hands without looking. a virtual keyboard provides no such feedback apart from the wrong letter being displayed when you're off target.
If the virtual keyboard had two levels of touch sensitivity, and played a soft chord when the F and J were touched, it would very quickly become second nature to stay in alignment. The other solution is the use a physical keyboard for extended periods of text entry. I use a GearHead wireless keyboard on my PE and once I got used to the spacing, I could type nearly as fast as my full desktop keyboard.
