I'm having difficulties with my graffiti on my Tung E ... It is not consistent and driving me crazy. i.e. sometimes it takes me 4 tries or more to make an "o". I've done the digitizer thing many times, and reset, but nothing is helping. Is it something under warranty or to do with the graffiti 2 or ??? Any advise appreciated.

I have found that if you start at the top and make your "o" counterclockwise, you must end the loop slightly above your starting point, otherwise you get a "g."
I hope this helps. My problem letter is the "k." I get it intermittently, but I went so far as to create a shortcut (Shortcut symbol + a) to make the "k" and (Shortcut symbol + e) for the capital "K."
Also, in the old graffiti program, what is now backspace used to move the cursor back a space without affecting the entry. I really miss this feature, and I am still hoping that there is some way to move the cursor forward and backward that I just haven't found out about.
I will make this a question on a separate post as I am anxious to know.

Thanks Ivector, but it is not only the "o"... I just can't write the graffiti very fast, it messes up a lot of letters. It's so frustrating. I'll try the "o" counter clockwise tho, thanks.
Before u get used to with graffiti area, you should first try with write anywhere on-screen. So that u know what u r writing. Go to Preference and in 'General' tap Writing Area, then tap the 'on' to activate Write anywhere on-screen. Don't forget to tick the Show pen stroke.
Then as u write on the screen u can see what u r writing.
Once u get used to it, its easier to use graffiti area.

You may want to try replacing your screen protector. I find that when mine is getting scratched up, it doesn't read the Graffitti very well.

My graffiti area on my T|E is also really messed up. At first I thought it was me having problems with G2. I loaded G1 and it seem to have fixed the problem however that was not the case.
I'm out of 90 day warranty so I'm "stuck with it".
A screen replacement is almost the cost of a new one.

Did you buy your TE with a credit card? Some credit cards double the manufacturers warranty up to one year.

For anyone having trouble with Graffiti2 i'd highly recommend a program called TealScript. $29.95 from http://www.tealpoint.com/softscrp.htm
It's awesome! You can customize each letter and it's based around Graffiti 1 to begin with. I've set it up to pretty much recognise my printed handwriting, which i think is much more efficient than trying to learn graffiti. It has tons of options, you can specify alternative strokes and even has macros, so you can assign certain strokes to entire words. I have one stroke symbols for "meet" "phone" "for" "and" "appointment" it's great. You can save different profiles and even has a "learn" mode (haven't used that yet)
