Text Entry

This might be of interest to any of you with bad hands as I have. I have SlideIT V1.15 installed in my Axim X51v and use this when I am away from home. Back at my Office I place the Axim in it's cradle and it synchronizes with my lap top whence I can print or email. When writing in the Office I run MyMobile on the laptop and this allows the mouse cursor to travel across to the Axim and takes the place of the stylus. 

Alternatively I can load and run MyMobiler which displays the Axim screen enlarged to full screen height and allows me to run SlideIT or most any other program on the Axim with the mouse on the lap top. It all works very well for just about all of my text entry. I appreciate that there are other working scenarios for which this might not be ideal but it is for me.
The technique of both sliding and tapping with prediction is admirable and efficient.  My hand is not sufficiently agile for me to be successful with Graffiti but it is obviously a desirable feature. Incidentally MyMobile is freeware.
