「は」 is always entered into an IME as "ha", even if it is romanized as "wa" due to use as a particle.

so must I type konnnichiha for こんにちは ? – cnd Oct 07 '11 at 07:20
Yes, although there possibly may be variants for 「ん」 and 「ち」 ("n'" and "ti" respectively). You won't really have to worry about those though. – Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams Oct 07 '11 at 07:25

Same goes for こんばんは, by the way. – Alenanno Oct 07 '11 at 09:15
