See previous letter from me for more detail. Use Jot and WordComplete
from CIC. Jot lets you write HUMAN ENGLISH LETTERS on the whole screen,
and WordComplete pops up a list of "guesses" as to what you're writing.
So if you write "c-o-m" a pop-up list includes the word "coming" which
you tap to insert (it also adds a space at the end of a word). So you've
written a 6-letter word plus the space at the end with 3 letters and 1
tap, as opposed to 6 letters and the "add-a-space" gesture, which is
often misinterpreted as a period.
Makes my Visor almost 25% as usable as my MP2100 at note taking.
