Hello Laura,
I've transcribed some short tunes with my Palm. I'm using PalmABC without an
external keyboard, and IMHO it's simply a pain. It's *very* slow, compared
to a real keyboard. I have tried to come up with some ideas, but unless
someone writes a dedicated editor for PDAs I don't think there are
alternatives.
Just my experience, I'm sorry I can't help you out.
Ciao,
Guido =8-)
