Well, I did hate the Palm stylus and its letter interface, too. But,
stylus is still the most accurate way for a human to point to something
with resolution on a small screen device....so far. Fingers are too large
to point to click spots on a normal webpage, for example. Oh, you can
drive yourself crazy spreading fingers so it will only click one link, then
zooming back out so you can read what it says. But, you need not magnify
the webpage with a stylus and calibrated screen.
Text entry with the stylus on these more intellegent machines isn't such a
chore as it was, either....unlike the Palms...yecch.
