I use a Palm m100 with a full size keyboard, so I don't exactly fit the
profile. I managed to get pretty good with Grafitti, but nowhere near as
my buddy Kevin, who used to take notes in class in grafitti - even on
paper.

My main gripe about the Palm Keyboard (they may have fixed this by now and
I may come up with my own hack) is that the space bar doesn't respond all
that well to my particular method of hitting it - I think I graze it
rather than giving it a good thump, which seems necessary.
