You can draw a basic textbox and display a string , and when it receives focus, you can switch the view to that particular textbox ,something like this

textBox = new TextBox(....);
Midlet.display.setCurrent(textBox);

This would create your data entry more robust and save you from the pain of implementing various keyboard issues yourselves

These items are only available for adding to Forms. Canvas is a class for handling lower-level events.

You have to implement your own textbox, and that isn't easy.
Basic textbox would be a rectangle (drawRect) with text (drawString) inside of it.
