Can either DanT, Lupe or Joel offer a recommendation on any good iPod Touch/Phone forums? Also, isn't the note applet supposed to rotate to a bigger keyboard when the Tuch is turned on its side?

I'm the lone voice crying in the wilderness that "I can't take notes on that thing" and "where is my Cut-n-Paste?". Never mind Plucker and Bible+ (in which I have 22 translations and/or commentaries). Aaargh. I was considering going to a Centro in January when my contract comes up. That way I can still have the PalmOS for another couple years while the iPhones and their imitators come up to speed. But, there won't be any forums left to ask questions in, I guess! It will have to "just work"!

I agree with you regarding the cut and paste. iPod users have been asking for this since Day 1. As for the commentaries and other software, I've paid mucho diniero to Laridian for stuff that is now useless to me.

The Centro is a non-starter for me because of the tiny screen.

I woulda never thunk that the Touch was that great, but in the last 5 days of using it, my eyes have been opened...

I read threads like this because I enjoy learning about new technology. But I haven't even "touch"ed a Touch yet (pun intended). So obviously, I have no information to help in a thread like this one.

Opps, I missed that part about the note landscape keyboard. Afraid the default app doesn't handle that but there is a third party app called Rainbow Note* that has landscape support for its notepad. Hopefully this could be a good option for you.
I would have to say give this a try, its called WritingPad*, it doesn't give landscape support but it does allow you to play with a new style of input for the ipod. No more typing, just sliding your finger along the letters also, its free so can't hurt to try ^_^.

Hope these choices help you out and also, the * means they open links in iTunes again.

Enjoy.

Lupe

By the way eReader now supports uploading your own books from your account settings on the web which you can then sync to your iphone. But in all honesty Stanza is my preferred reader since you can access your eReader books anyway. __________________ "Mr. Jarod said that cockroaches would be the only things alive after a biological war.
