On other day to day stuff, I've taken to writing in ink text and leaving
recognition until later. It allows you to focus on the discussion at hand
in meetings without being distracted by misrecognitions and consequent
edits.

Yes, even at the gas station - and still haven't sparked any explosions
from the static discharges... I love MPG.

Dave,
I always have mine in a ripoff case and I whip it out anytime, anywhere
:-)
But yes I sometimes do pull it out while I am standing in line waiting,
gets lots of attention and people can't believe it was cancelled that
long ago. Some say that they will check out ebay and j+k sales and get
one, but I don't know if they do. In any case I do enter things pretty
quick as sometimes my mind is like a sieve! Later I will go through my
wallet and make sure.
