Palm inks deal for handwriting recognition software - Ephraim Schwartz, InfoWorld
Palmsource, the operating system division of Palm, announced on Monday that it will discontinue its Graffiti handwriting recognition software in favor of Jot technology from Communication Intelligence Corp. [CIC] based in Redwood Shores, Calif. The Jot software will be renamed Graffiti 2 and will be embedded in current and future versions of the OS. According to PalmSource officials Jot emulates more natural printing input. While in Grafitti a user has to write an upside down L to depict a 't' in Jot the same letter is written as a plain 't'. "Users don't have to read a manual," said Michael Higashi, director of OS Marketing for Palmsource in Sunnyvale.
