It helps a lot that windows8 will include a Russian mnemonic keyboard. Unfortunately a letter is missing entirely, namely the letter щ.
Any plans to correct this?

Count the letters - you get 28 russian letters there,
there should be 33, so 5 are missing: Щ Ё Э Ы Ч...

So try Bulgarian Phonetic Traditional keyboard there,
at least they have 30, you gain two more...

And that Russian Mnemonic layout is weird,
I am much more used to Phonetic (ZH): ЯЖЕРТЫ...

So Microsoft, do you guys care?


Thanks,
Oleg.

It's true that the Microsoft Phonetic Keyboard (they call it a "mnemonic" keyboard) has a missing character (щ), rendering it pretty useless. Yesterday I was able to create a replacement using Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator.

I can make my Russian Phonetic Keyboard available. Does this forum provide a way to attach files?

I have Windows 8 Developer Preview. My Russian Keyboard (Mnemonic) misses character [ж]
is there any combination of characters which can write [ж] ?

gfheiche
[щ] you can write with combination [C]


Well I have rechecked every of russian symbols , and I found them all. And with all this I can say that now this mnemonic layout is pretty great :) (Better than in past)

So if you search symbols, here they are:

Ъ = `(~)
Ь = ' (")
Ж = X
Ш = W (sh)
Я = Q (ya) , (ja)
Ю = ju (yu)
Ч = ch
Щ = sc
Ё = jo (yo)
Э = je (ye)

Mnemonic keyboard layout mean's that you can type as you hear symbols :)
