Yeah, we can all tell you can be a tough customer, so I'm impressed!

I've been using Mobile Write since December, since I'm an old Palmy I'm pretty addicted to graffiti. I tried Swype just a little and was frustrated, so I'm wondering; do you have a screen protector? There are sure a lot of swype fans so I'm wondering if my screen protector was messing it up.

The Mobile Write developer has been a slight disappointment. I thought he was going to release an update that would at least offer a smaller input area like the old Palms and Clie's used to be, but nothing yet. That's really my only gripe about MobileWrite; it's fullscreen, hiding whatever app you're actually entering your data into. Seems pretty counter-intuitive. Even then I still prefer it to any of the keyboards most of the time!

I hate to say it right out loud, but as far as keyboards go, the Blackberrys may rule when it comes to pocket-able devices.

Hey! This is 2010! Keyboards should be obsolete and we should have rock-solid voice recognition and handwriting recognition by now!!!
