Arnold, I have an overlay with all of the dots and I use the touch typing method. I find it does not impair my movement around the keyboard at all.
I also think that the dots make it easier to maintain a straight line when sliding one's finger across the home screen to find a particular app. Go to www.speeddots.com to order. You can also buy an Otter Box Defender case along with the overlay. It all fits on the phone well and there is no bubbling.

You say you have both models. Where does one get them? Also, with this overlay, can one use the touch typing method, or does the overlay prevent sliding your finger around until you find the letter?Or perhaps, the overlay makes it easy to find the letters, so one does not have to slide their finger to find them? Tomorrow, I will ask my coworker to show me his phone with this overlay on it, I do not know which overlay he has. Thanks.

Hello, I had my iPhone4s for several Months before I bought mine tactile overlay. I liked my phone before, but now the overlay is pretty handy. I bought both models, because I couldn't decide. I currently have the model on with all of the keyboard and smooth spots for f&J. I find myself using the overlay more for orientation then speed of typing. It is kind of cool to know exactly where the send button is or the address bar. :) then there are those spots that I find by accident. For example, if you move your finger on the left, just above the keyboard, you'll find yourself at the start of an email message. When you're in that app of course. BTW, the overlay has sped up my typing a bit, but I'm spoiled with dictation. ;) Traci Sent by Macbook Air Mail On Jun 13, 2012, at 3:37 PM, Jon Pierson wrote: Hi, I've used mine for a year and a half, no pealing at all.

Yeh, I thought they were a really nifty idea when they came out. When I got my ITouch no one was selling them so I learned without. Now I see them occasionally on clients' IPhones and they drive me nuts, especially when the thing starts pealing. I still think they're a great idea, I just think they lose something in application.

He said it makes it a lot easier for him to know where to touch the screen. I realize that opinions are probably as numerous as the number of people asked, but I thought I would ask anyway. If you have one, as you have gotten use to using your phone, has it gotten in the way more than helped? If so, is it easy to get off the phone? Thanks for any opinions.
