Eric--
I'd really like to know who told you that we were dropping Speedy. This FUD has
been spread on the public forum as well.
I can guess how the rumor got started -- in the promo material for
Fin2009 on the web-site, on the page dealing with Note Entry, there is a
tab for Simple Entry, for Hyperscribe, for MicNotator and for Scanning.
No mention of Speedy Entry at all. And since you're making such a big
deal of all those methods which have been part of Finale for many
versions and you make *no* mention of Speedy Entry at all on the page
about note entry, it's an easy assumption that you've decided to drop
Speedy Entry. I'm sure there are many more people who use Speedy Entry
than use MicNotator, yet you make a big deal of MicNotator and fail to
mention Speedy Entry at all. For people already spooked by the major
tool realignment from Finale2008 and who have read the comments about
how Speedy Entry will eventually be done away with when its
functionality is moved over to Speedy Entry, this failure to mention
Speedy Entry is significant.
Blame your publicity department for failing to mention what for many of
us is the major or only method of note entry.
