Some people buy a TG50 but seems to have rare use of the keyboard.  How often do you use the keyboard to replace Graffiti?  Or, you have to install other software like Graffiti Anywhere, NewPen or Tealscript to bypass the annoyances arising from the miss Graffiti area?

I thought I would never use the keyboard. But after I got used to I really like it... Still don't know why ;-)

I use the keyboard almost 100% of the time now.

I had the Treo 90 a while ago and as disappointed I was with the limitations, I had loved and always used the keyboard. When TG50 was announced, I knew I was going to buy one. I only use the keyboard, I just cant wait until they support Audible files, then this unit will be 100% complete.

I, as an NX user, love my VG. It just feels so natural for quick notes. However for longer passages I use the keyboard as well.

(I know I'm in the wrong forum, but talking about keyboards is part of bein an NX owner as well)

i also use the keyboard. Probably cuz i am a newbie. TG is my first pda, i dont have problem to get used to the keyboard from Graffiti. Old clie users usually find its difficult to shift away from Graffiti....

I am an oldbie. Been using a palm for about 3 years. For now it seems like I only use the keyboard. I don't miss graffiti at all, except when I need to enter numbers, the keyboard entering numbers is kind of a pain, even with the NUM lock.

Still, I find that for short notes, long notes, any data input, I count on my trusty TG50 keyboard.

Use the keyboard all the time except for numbers, I think the keyboard on the NZ feels better. Sure beats graffiti when you are moving around

Initially I still wonder whether I need to install some Graffiti software like GA, NP or TS. Now as I get used to the keyboard I don't think I need these programs.

Have you ever tried pressing blue key+caps lock to enter numbers? It works great...
