[NTLK] Shorthand or speed writing

[Frank Lowney]

Has the Newton ever been capable of interpreting shorthand or any other speed writing technique? Could speech-to-text (STT) eclipse hand writing recognition (HWR)?

I ask because I am trying to fathom why Apple isn’t pursuing HWR in iOS now that there is an Apple Pencil.
