And I have heard users scream AT their iphone keyboards. As far as the 'hardware' keyboard goes, my first PDA was a Sharp OZ organizer with ABC keys back when dinosaurs ruled the earth. I was very reluctant to give up my keyboard for Grafitti on my first Palm PDA, a Palm III. Eventually I got quite comfortable and competent with grafitti, but ALWAYS, ALWAYS had an external keyboard for longer projects/work (Go Type; Stowaway, etc.) and even still have an IR keyboard for the Treo.
But, Good Grief, I hated Grafitti 2. I got G1 working on my T2, and even my T3, but never really on my T|X, and after shattering my T|X's screen in a fury when having to enter data quickly in a pressure situation and completely unable to make a T, or see the keyboard, that was pretty much it for me and 'virtual' keyboards. Finally, one more slap at the iPhone. I have a 80g ipod which is almost completely full. Which 16G am I going to pick for the iphone? Which 8g? How much time am I going to spend moving music on and off? Enough to bill enough hours that I could buy several more iphones and Treos. But is sure is purty. Harold P.S. Of course, there's no doubt in my mind that on the Yahoo iPhone groups, they're concluding that those of us preferring Treo's are hopeless luddites with no style and pocket protectors.....of course they're wrong, but that's what they're doing. ;-) --- Original Message--- To: [email protected] From: "john.messeder" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: 5/06/2008 4:33PM Subject: Re: Moving away from Palm soon (Was: Re: [Treo] Sync via BT on Vista Ultimate) >> I don't think so, but maybe.
