I'm finding Simple Entry in FinMac 04 really annoying.
 Keyboard shortcuts have been changed completely, and
certain behavior is radically different.

1) When a note is entered it stays active until the
next note is entered.  This means that when I change
the cursor to the note value of the next note to be
entered, the note I just entered gets changed to the
new value!

2) Old behavior: I enter a B natural in the key of F
using the natural sign in the Simple Entry palette.  I
then enter a Bb on the same line or space, simply by
deselecting the natural sign in the palette.  In
FinMac 04 this is no longer the case.  If I want a Bb
after entering a B natural, I have to select the flat
in the palette.

I find both of these new "features" extremely
annoying.  I've been using Finale for nearly four
years, using Simple Entry as my primary method of
entering notes.  I know that many others prefer
Speedy, but Simple works for me, especially since it
has been drastically improved over the last couple of
years.  But I feel that Coda blew it this time by
over-improving something that was working fine for me.
