Yes, that is what I do: try not to stop until I get to the end of the word and have put the punctuation on! My problem is that of course the six keys are smaller and closer together than say on a braille writer or even my old braillelite 40. i'm sure I will get used to this but right now it means that I make more mistakes even though I am a proficient braille writer. Then because I'm nervous about the expansion overtaking me, I probably make even more mistakes which results in either having to delete the whole word or inserting a letter sign so I can finish without a mess!
