If other's are having success with it then great, but as for me it's back to tengo
Yeh I guess everyone is different- I am not a fan of Tengo but it's also a great little program and I can certainly see why you like it- it's just not fast enough in my hands. Perhaps it also was a learning curve thing (who here has tried speed reading ?) but I did invest a lot of time usind tengo. I write lecture notes in shorthand and SS is like electronic shorthand in concept only you don't need to transcribe later ! Training: For me , all I did was run through the example/learning option on the speedscript keyboard a couple of times and I was up and running. I also did a little mind-shifting as it were - you have to think about where the vowels are in a word if you want to utilise the full power of it but this "clicks" pretty quickly and then it just snowballs.
Anyway fortunately there are enough options for everyone as far as keyboards go ! :)
