Another On Screen Keyboard

You don’t think DialKeys is the only one, do you? James is writing about a new On Screen Keyboard (OSK) software, Ilium InScribe. He used it on Sony U71 and really liked it:

You can’t tell from these screen shots but as you drag the pen to spell the word a thin black line is visible on the keyboard to show the pen path. It really is very easy to use InScribe and Ilium has done an excellent job porting this over from the Handheld PC platform. One of the handiest features is the delete word key as it’s very fast to just rekey a word that you flub by hitting the key and entering it again.

I was investigating OSK software even before UMPCs came out, and there are really good solutions. Some of them even let you create your own layout with special characters, but it looks like InScribe will be a good one too.
