title: How to make a iPhone keyboard not visible as it rises?
body: <p>When my iPhone app starts up, the main screen has a keyboard. Currently the keyboard rises as soon as the rest of the interface is displayed and this is visually distracting.</p>
  
  <p>How can I have the view display with the keyboard already up?</p>
  
  <p>Since I am already faking some of the rest of the screen during startup so that the user sees what they last were doing, I thought that I could fake the keyboard as well. But if the motion is there when the real keyboard appears, I've lost the effect. The keyboard is, as far as I know, on a separate window, not just a separate view, so I can't overlay it with my own image.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to either overlay the keyboard withy my own image as it appears, or not show the keyboard until it is all the way up, or make its animation instant?</p>
