[NTLK] [OT] OS X & Ink

Hi all,

I have toyed with the idea of getting a Wacom tablet to have the ease of use
as I have it with my Newton when having to take notes. Well, we went out
today, my family and I, and got a Graphire2 - $99.
I hooked it up, downloaded the driver from Wacom and was on my way to
simulate Newton under OS X - Oops ... How could they (Apple) mess this up so
badly?
I feel like I'm back on my MP120, just with a little less comfort. No
tapping to move the insertion point, no ny -> ing correction, no ^ to insert
a space, no auto-space after a word, no period (".") and the list goes on
and on. I even have to learn some of these strange glyphs some people got
used to, from the Palm (shudder). This is plain awful - has anybody any
better experiences with this Ink stuff?

Best regards,
Chris
