Jim, If you'd like to get your code speed up, I highly recommend "The Art & Skill of Radio-Telegraphy" ... it can be found in html at http://www.zerobeat.net/tasrt/contents.htm . A downloadable pdf is available, but it's not nearly so easy to navigate. I'm trying to get my code speed up too, and it's very helpful.
I also use CwType <http://dxsoft.com/> (paste any text in the window and hear it at whatever speed you want). The Art&Skill book has "common words" you can copy and paste directly into CwType, which really helps with the practice. At http://www.k0ru.net/fog/highspeed.html , you'll find a few words of advice from a chap who's running at speed. Cheers, Alan Alan D.
