Talk:Graffiti (Palm OS)

message: Should this page also show the differences between Jot, the Sony version, and the collapsable areas?
----
I've renamed this page Graffiti (Palm OS) rather than Graffiti (PalmOS) for consistency with the article on Palm OS.  --LostLeviathan 22:35, 12 Dec 2004 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I tried a few searches for any 'variants' of Graffiti that might still exist, and all I could find was the already-mentioned Graffiti 2 Pro for Android, published by Access, the Japanese company that acquired the rights to Graffiti. The patent having long expired, I wonder if there aren't any other Graffiti 'clones' out there?... if so, it would be nice to list them here as well.
It's noteworthy to remember that (as this article so well mentions!), at some point in time, Graffiti was universally available on every mobile device except iOS/iPadOS, although Apple did license it for the Newton (which was not enough to 'save' that product, though) — so it was not deemed to be a product for a 'niche' market, but rather a mainstream product... which has now been mostly abandoned.
It would also be interesting to cite a few papers of the early 2000s comparing the ease and speed of writing using Graffiti compared to other input techniques. Sure, it was about half as fast as typing on a normal-sized keyboard, but, for me, that placed it orders of magnitude above all other possibilities (on-screen keyboards, calligraphy recognition, even voice recognition...). I'm curious if my experience is just parochial or universal, but couldn't find any reference to such a study (Palm possibly commissioned a few, back then), except for the Xerox patents filed for their 'Unistroke' technology...
