MessagEase Fast Text Entry System - MessagEase is the fastest and most ergonomic text entry system for Palm. This new version of MessagEase is the precursor of MessagEaseKB, to be released soon to optionally replace your palm keyboard. (learn more about MessagEaseKB at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MessagEase).
MessagEase uses a revolutionary new keyboard design, making it easy and intuitive to enter all letters, numbers and special characters quickly and accurately.
It also includes an entertaining multi-level game.
MessagEase's employs very few keys, the same number of keys found on a number keypad of a telephone.
You enter characters either by a single tap or a single drag on one the screen. Since these keys are few (essentially only 9), they are larger (much larger than QWERTY keys), hence easier to target, increasing your accuracy.
And since the letter arrangements are based on letter frequency tables, to enter text 71% of the time you'll do a single taps on main keys.
To demonstrate its flexibility, this application also supports Japanese Katakana.
This MessagEase application is a freeware, created for your enjoyment and evaluation.
The entertaining multi-level game, included, challenges your brain and enhances your text entry speed both in English and Katakana.
Playing the game a few times and scoring a reasonable score will enable you to type in excess of 40 WPM on MessagEase keyboard even if you don't type that fast on a regular computer keyboard!
In addition of Katakana, MessagEase supports full 220 ANSI character set. There is no need to change the mode or the keyboard to get to enter other characters, everything is all characters are accessible from the main (3 X 3) keyboard.
The text buffer of the current application allows you to type and keep about two pages of text, which persists over exiting and re-entering MessagEase, allowing you to preserve your thoughts and port your prose to other applications.
It also provides you with 90 locations in each of which you can store up to 200 characters for easy recall.
Last but not least, the entertaining game included in the software contains a surprise when you exceed the score of 1500 in each category!
