Transcriber is our favorite way of entering text into the iPAQ, particularly when writing e-mail messages or documents. Transcriber allows you to write anywhere on the screen and then, when you pause, have your written text interpreted into words and phrases. You can print, use cursive writing, or mix it up, and Transcriber can still interpret what you are doing. When using Transcriber, don’t write too small. The larger your text, the easier it is to interpret. On the other extreme, don’t write so large that you can’t fit your text on the screen. Also, remember that you can write anywhere, so use the full screen. Don’t worry about writing over whatever is currently displayed; what is shown on the screen will not affect your Transcriber input. Try not to rest your palm on, or allow anything else to come into contact with, the screen.
Another advantage to Transcriber is that it works with any Pocket PC application, but doesn’t take up screen space, giving you the maximum view of your application.
