[qwerty212]

I wonder is digitizer drift change to get worse in time. I have first symptoms, and I hope that will be all about drift. What is your expirience with it?

I haven't experienced digitizer drift on my T/X but one of my friends has a bad case. You have three choices:

The cheapest/best solution being purchasing Powerdigi for $10.95 at www.palmpowerups.com. My friend had a bad case and Powerdigi made a dramatic difference.

If it's really bad, Chris Short can repair your palm. You can find him on Ebay by searching for Palm Repair and then looking for: BROKEN Palm Evaluation and Repair Service -FULL SERVICE. A Current listing is: 190099601800, expires April 10th. Here are a couple of links to articles about him:

You could send it to Palm for a $125 bucks and they may fix it and they may not, they may give you back your palm and they may give you a refurbished model. Caveat Emptor.

Hope this helps,

Tom

Thank you for answer. Drift in my Palm is quite small, and I hope it will stay like this. That is why I asked if I have reasons to worry or this is all and it won't be worse.
I already tried trial version of PowerDigi - it's great application, it really fix drift problem. The only problem for me is slow recoginise letters from graffiti field. It behaves like after strong underclock. That's why I probably won't use this solution.

Unfortunately, this does not work on the Tungsten E. I'd happily pay $10 to fix the digitizer on my Tungsten E, but the developer has seen fit not to support it. Too much work for him to be bothered, I guess, so he leaves anyone who bought a Tungsten E hanging without a solution...

To answer your question, it may or may not get worse over time. Mine got a small amount of drift and it did not worsen for a few months, however, I was very gentle with it. I finally replaced it with a glass digitizer which works better than the original ever did.
