I loved the onscreen keyboard in my m515. I used it with the stylus, taptaptaptap, fast entry with practially no mistakes, perhaps fewer than I make on a keyboard, and this from someone who has trouble writing due to poor muscle control. With a 160x160 pixel transflective screen it was usable in bright sunshine too; I used to sit on the Downs texting my friends. Getting a Zaurus was the worst thing for my social life. :) I'm thinking of pairing the palm with my Kindle in a folding case, but haven't got any real ideas for it other than using the Palm for text entry and maybe using the original calendar which was nice -- simple and efficient. I like to write when I'm out in the countryside where laptops mean neck strain and my Zaurus makes my thumbs ache.
