Hi Desi and all, I find using the on screen keyboard difficult and frustrating. I use the touch typing mode and that helps a lot. I got the Rii, tiny keyboard and the Logitec 760, full size keyboard; it is just easier to me.
I am curious if you use some technique that makes typing on the on screen keyboard easier. Teresa keyboard On 5/25/14, M.
