TenGO Free is a revolutionary new alternative input program for the Pocket PC. It is meant to replace the keyboard/recognizer and increase efficiency by predicting what word you are typing and using just 6 buttons for all the letters of the alphabet. A similar input method would be T9 that you use on your phone for texting, although TenGO is much more and much faster than T9 could ever wish to be.
You can view a YouTube video of a teddybear-wielding Japanese girl typing like mad (in jammies) on her Axim X51
here.
You can download TenGO Free
here. They also have a typing benchmark program (free as well) and will start posting high benchmark scores. There’s a wmv video of a Japanese girl typing at 72 WPM on her Axim X51
here. TenGO users are apparently Axim fans. It's a different video than the above YouTube one.

The software is free for non-commercial use. When I first installed it I chose put it on my storage card. It said it had to be installed in main memory but continued installing on the storage card. Requiring a soft reset to finish installation, I had to soft reset, remove the software, soft reset, reinstall to main memory, and soft reset again. Whew! Don't fall into the same trap as I did.
You must register the software before you can use it. After registering, it launches a tutorial. Don’t skip the tutorial, it’s important.
Check out the videos, check out the software, enjoy!
