Biennial challenge asks “How Fast Can You Enter Data on Your PDA?”
Burlington, MA (September 28, 2004) – Textware Solutions announces the Dom Perignon IV Speed Contest, starting October 1, 2004 and ending November 6, 2004.

The Grand Prize winner in each category – Palm devices and Pocket PCs – will be awarded a prestigious bottle of Dom Perignon.
Publisher of the Fitaly alternative keyboard for the Palm and Pocket PC, Textware Solutions already held three Dom Perignon Speed Contests in 1998, 2000, and 2002. Past contest participants cruised at an average speed of 50 WPM, with contest winners approaching or even surpassing 80 WPM, and repeatedly providing a factual demonstration that doing fast text entry on a PDA is a realistic proposition.
Entries to the Dom Perignon IV Speed Contest can be submitted with any application that uses a stylus for the entry of data on a Palm or Pocket PC device. This includes on-screen keyboards, keyboard overlays on the Graffiti area, as well as handwriting recognition programs. The use of shortcuts and word-completion or phrase-completion capabilities is not allowed.
