Well, there are two ways:
[1] I read the matchbox manual/compiled the src during Easter holidays.
One light bulb moment was:
You can switch between open apps in iLiad`s default window manager matchbox all the time!
ALT+P, or ALT+N [p=previous, n=next] do the job nicely.
On my iLiad runs the current matchbox version 1.2, but it should work with iLiad`s version 0.9.5, too.
So you can use a USB keyboard or edit the
Shortcut keys config [/usr/etc/matchbox/kbdconfig] for shortcuts with are clickable with software keyboard.
The port of the full keyboard
xvkbd isn`t finished yet.
[2] You can use the window manager
fluxbox.
[the odds: I have to post the configuration files I use to make it usable.

Code:
#
# This is an example keyboard config file for matchbox
#
# You can edit this file or change per user by copying to
# ~/.matchbox/kbdconfig
#
# Se the matchbox manual for more info ( http://projects.o-hand.com/matchbox )
### Window operation short cuts
<Alt>n=next
<Alt>p=prev
<Alt>c=close
<Alt>d=desktop
<Alt>m=!matchbox-remote -mbmenu
### windows style key shortcuts
