Announcing Instant Text Mobile -- Second Release
For years we have been addressing the needs of fast text-entry with separate products: Instant Text on PCs, and Fitaly on PDAs. Our impression was that PDAs did not have sufficient power to support the algorithms needed for Instant Text. As the power of PDAs is now well over that of the early PCs we initially used for Instant Text, we have come to revisit the subject and our answer is now Instant Text Mobile.

For those who like to read what is behind a design, there is a Rationale on the design of Instant Text Mobile, and there are already a number of early Instant Text Mobile Reviews.
Of course, best is to try it by downloading the Instant Text Mobile Demo, a 10-day demo (repeatable).
It goes without saying the Instant Text Mobile works very well with Fitaly and the combination brings text-entry speed to a new level on a PDA. It is also designed to work very well with a portable keyboard or with a thumboard like the one of the Treo 650.
Odering Instant Text Mobile: Instant Text Mobile is available for $29, with an introductory price of $25 extended until December 31, 2005. The introductory price for Fitaly users is $19:
This first version is for Palm OS 5 and our intent is to port it to other popular mobile platforms.
