I don't use cursive, but I think the 2100 is sufficiently faster to make it
worth the extra size. Beyond that, the extra screen real estate also allows
you to write more and more comfortably. I much prefer writing on my 2100 vs.
my 130. The overall system speed is also a big bonus. I borrow my 130 now on
occasion, and the overall slowness is quite frustrating. :-) As for the
keyboard, if you are a fairly quick touch typist, you will find the the
keyboard to be unable to keep up with your typing, and your mistakes will
increase in all likelihood. Go for the 2100. That's my advice.
