you can customize the phone pad, or any of the UIKeyboards by creating and drawing your own buttons/views over them. it's a hack, but it can work quite nicely if you're interested in some minimal customization (for example: changing the "Go" or "Done" button to display "Login" or "Save"). best results will require some photoshop skill. keep in mind that some buttons change shape and position depending on which international keyboard settings the user chooses.
here's a tutorial to get you started: http://www.neoos.ch/news/46-development/54-uikeyboardtypenumberpad-and-the-missing-return-key if you really want to customize everything from top to bottom, i suggest you roll your own keyboard. good luck!
