Data Entry on Windows Mobile
I’ve always had problems with data entry on my Pocket PC.
Not problems as such, I just find the stylus cumbersome sometimes, and don’t really want a device with a full keyboard (my next handset was going to be the HTC Touch Diamond, until I read about the HTC Touch Pro yesterday on CoolSmartPhone.com).
I want a couple of input methods really:
- Stylus / Writing – I find the Block Recogniser quite adequate for this.
- One handed – Something I can type with one handed whilst walking down the street.
- Full on – A keyboard when I’ve got a whole page of data to write and can just hammer away at it.
I tried ThumbKey last week, I haven’t really got to grips with it – but the same as any new input method it requires:
- Time
- Patience
- More patience
- A willingness to make mistakes
- More patience
Does anyone recommend any input method for their Pocket PC?
