What the hell? You can't encrypt filenames. I don't know where the hell you got the idea that you can.

I was about to say it may have something to do with the fact that they're separate letters in other languages, like in Polish ą is a different letter, as are ć and ź. It may have something to do, though, with the fact that the ą sounds very similar to a, but ć and ź sound much different from c and z. (I'm only speaking from my very limited knowledge of Polish, I'm not sure about other languages.)

Touch-typing on any little keyboard like that is near impossible. On a normal keyboard, you're moving multiple fingers short distances. While on a little keyboard you're moving two fingers longer distances (key-wise, not actual distance). This makes it much harder to touch type since it's harder to judge where your fingers have to go.

This is at least my experience with little cellphone hard-keyboards, maybe it's different for others.

Regardless, braille would be really cool. Assuming the screens were high enough resolution (that is, could raise itself up accurately enough to make small dots) to display it.

I don't edit HTML very much, but when I do, Zen coding helps so much. Especially since all you really need to know is CSS selector formatting.
