[NTLK] Note taking problem - scroll a half page?

I use my 2100 primarily for note taking. One problem I have is that
as I fill up the page I have less and less room to write the next
text.

My usual method is to write smaller until the page is almost filled
and then hit the scroll down arrow to go to a new page. If I hit the
scroll down arrow too soon I don't see any of my existing text, which
I prefer to avoid.

Is it me or the Newton? Is there anyway to scroll sooner either a
full page or a half page without having all the text disappear at the
top and/or without using the scroll button. Is there some kind of
gesture I can use to have it scroll a certain number of lines but not
a full page but leave the insertion caret where it is?

Brian
