That's pretty sad. I think this about sums it up:
"Unlike Palm OS's easy Grafitti writing program, Pocket PC's character
recognizer is inconsistent. We like the fact that you can actually see the
letters as you write them on the device's screen, but we wish that the
character recognizer would translate written characters into the correct
letters.
Although Pocket PC has many helpful Windows similarities, it also inherited
one of the OS's most annoying traits: it crashes. Just like good ol' Windows
98, this little OS crashes more often than we'd like. Our machine froze four
times in less than three hours."
