If you own an Android tablet and have been wondering why in the Hades you haven't been able to type numbers on your stock keyboard by long-pressing the top row, it's time to take a quick peek to see if your fortunes have changed. Version 1.1 of the APK is now available on the Play Store, and it lists the numeric enhancement among the standard bug fixes, tuned layouts for some languages and "stability improvements" listed in the changelog. It's about time, Google, but better late than never.
