    Judd,
    
       Well, thank you very much. That's what I get for not using my reading
    glasses when looking at the keyboard! Had I done so, I would have seen the
    magnifying glass and the meaning would be obvious.

       I agree that the UI is less easy to understand than that of the pure Palm
    Pilots or the Kyocera phone/PDA. And, after years of writing on the screen
    with the plastic stylus, it's a lot slower using those tiny keys to enter
    letters.
    
       Many thanks for pointing out the obvious, Judd. And a happy Thanksgiving
    Day to you and the rest of the US subscribers.
    
    Rich
