One of the things — about the only thing — I have never really liked about my Tungsten T3 is the fact that they dropped the Graffiti writing system and replaced it with an "improved" version they called Graffiti 2. Quite apart from the fact that it took some getting used to when I had used Graffiti for two years, it was in fact substantially worse for obscure and little-used letters like "i", "l" and "t". If you want to write a word ending with an "l", you have to wait for a few seconds, or you won't get a space after the l, but it will change into a t.
Only yesterday I was told there is a hack that allows you to use the old Graffiti. I have installed it and it seems to work fine. This posting took me substantially less time to write than with G2.
Edit:
The word "till" in itself is especially bothersome. Whereas in Graffiti 1 it could be written with four strokes, in G2 it takes six, and then you have to wait for a few seconds before you write a space after it, or G2 will interpret the last horizontal stroke not as a space but as the crossbar on the "t". I very soon lost count of how many times I wrote "tilt" instead of "till", which is not an uncommon word. If you save one stroke every time you write "i", "k", or "t", that's a lot of strokes even in relatively short texts.
