I wonder if I made that typo, or if the constant itself has changed since I wrote this post. Either way, the correction is noted and updated in the post :) Thanks!

I want an input field for a currency value - the best option I have from the above list is UIKeyboardTypeNumbersAndPunctuation but this isn't as tidy as UIKeyboardTypeNumberPad, the latter only has numerals. I'm hoping a new Keyboard Type is added within a future version of the SDK.

I see now that the UI reference pages show a "conforms to" section of each class documenting the protocols they conform to. Nevermind.

All the native Apple apps already do this, but it is nice that Apple provided the functionality so easily to developers.
