About the harder to type: I’ve been beating a rarely heard drum about FITALY a keyboard layout designed for one-handed character entry. It was originally developed as a Hack for Palm devices and was BRILLIANT for that use. I don’t understand why the user-friendly (?) folks at the big fruit haven’t picked up on this yet. Provincialism? Chauvinism? I don’t know but FITALY would help out a lot of ipad users.
