Keyboard disappears when texting

The same thing is happening to me. This is what it looks like http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2117132/Photo%20Dec%2016%2C%205%2050%2043%20PM.jpg I have to close the message and open it again to get it to work.

Just tap in the input box at the bottom of the screen (as shown in that jpg).

I'll have to try that next time it happens, but I still feel like it shouldn't happen in the first place.

It's perfectly logical. When you receive a message, the keyboard tucks away to give you the maximum area for reading. You signal that you want to type by tapping the input box, and the keyboard appears. If you don't want to type, you don't need a keyboard.

That's not at all what's happening. As you can see by the picture the keyboard is not tucked away it's still there in your way it just doesn't have any keys. Also i tried it and clicking the input box doesn't do anything you have to close out and open it again for the keyboard to return.
