I installed an app for an O’Reilly book called “iPhone: The Missing Manual”. (There’s a free, lite version you can try first.) I thought it was so handy that I went ahead and bought the full manual. The thing that impressed me most, which I really don’t see reference to online, is how you can slide from the ABC keyboard over to do punctuation. It immediately returns you to the ABC keyboard. You slide from the button for the 123 keyboard, over to your punctuation, then just lift your finger. It truly speeds things up. I do most of my blog posts from the phone now and I keep a daily journal in Wonderful Days. I definitely want to be able to type faster on the phone, but have not managed to type well with more than one finger at a time. It’s all just part of the craziness of using a phone for things like this.
