But, Walt, if this functionality is added, you would not have to use it. No one
is suggesting it be turned into a word processor. I don't think I'd like to
type for
long periods of time on that teeny keyboard! <grin> And if they don't add memo
functionality, I'll be OK. But I'm not sure why some seem to think it's a *bad*
idea to want to see the potential for this part of the software to be explored.
