I used the centre softkey because I thought "isn't sending the default? Who uses Enter; they can just go to the options and insert if they're that desperate". But then I realised that having "Send" as the centre softkey makes it more prone to mis-sendings, because you might've been trying to do something else (such as get into the text entry box) when it changed so you'll end up sending the message instead.

The right softkey is safe and out-of-the-way, and we can use the left softkey for options since there's anyway a dedicated back button for those who want to get out.
