A Stylus Supplement to the Wizard's keyboard.

I know we have a great keyboard for the Wizard, but sometimes, I just get to lazy to slide it out, turn the Wizard and start typing on the keyboard. Sometimes, it is just easier to slide out the stylus OR even just use my fingers.. Try Messagease, a really great software.

With Messagease, we can write using strokes and taps instead of just the usual taps on tiny keyboards. Instead of the usual qwerty arrangements of other thumb tools like TenGo, we know have basically, 18 buttons(9 for the alphabet and 9 for symbols), plus some space/backspace buttons, which are large. With the latest version, there is even an option to make the buttons thumb size!!

Try it... go to.

Looks promising (ive gotten used to the phonepad in my MDA for now) but somehow it doesnt seem to work for me

after installing it it gives the message its outdated, and after that i cant get it to work, i select messageease but it reverts back to normal keyboard, even after a soft reset

ive tried it installing the windows mobile5 and the windows mobile5 lite version, but both dont work..

on the site is no faq or help section, so if you got any clue for me let me know ;)

I used the lite version and did had the same problem you had... symptoms were like this...

1st install... no soft reset... working
soft reset -> not working, cannot select,keep getting normal keyboard..
soft reset ->working again..
however, it seems to be okay after I applied the "default SIP" fix I got from the XDA developers site... No problems since then...
hope you can get it working... it is an exciting new idea....
