Like several others, I have an iPAG (model 4355) from HP. It comes with a pointy stick- which I assume others do as well. In Pocket Genealogist, you can choose to have your database unlocked on the handheld, so you can enter data. I can enter data by typing on the tiny keyboard at the bottom of the handheld, or I can select block recognizer, letter recognizer and transcriber (handwriting). I use the pointy stick on the screen to either type letters on the keyboard that comes up in PG, or I can write notes in. I usually choose to type. Naturally, because of it's size, I don't think it's the best way to do long notes- I save those for later on my desktop. But I do enter info into PG on my handheld- using the stick (which stores in the handheld). PG is a great program- easy to use. Susan

Yet, there has been no discussion about the small typing area for inputting. I have very large fiingers. My problem is the PDA's small area for inputting as I have hit two or even three buttons then entering data. My son has a PDA and he writes on the screen. CAn any one elaborate on this function of the PDAs I go back to review an new PDA and see if the different companies are making something to help in this area.
