Android app, showing a keyboard
<p>I recently wrote my first app for android, and I created a listview for selecting an element from a list of about 500 items.  Since it's basically the default listview, it's searchable, and I can bring up the onscreen keyboard by holding down the menu button, but I was wondering if there was a way to bring up the keyboard automatically (and not make it freak out if the phone has a physical keyboard).  Does anyone know how I can do this?  I've been searching around and haven't found anything.</p>
