MessagEase presents users with an on-screen keyboard that offers full text entry (letters, numbers, special characters) with larger keys than the standard on-screen keyboard. It also offers an enlarged letter-only area for finger-based input.

More than anything, I'd like to have macros and shortcuts to frequently used text. It is said to be coming, though there is no mention of when.
I assume it at least uses the word completion settings specified in the Input settings applet, right?

As for wishes, I wish there was some way to un-clutter the 8 less frequent letters crammed around the "O." These are very easy to tap-drag incorrectly and can make the program more of a nuisance than a help.
There seems an obvious way to unclutter the "O" key. With nine keys, you have nine centered letters, and 36 corners. If they only put the less frequently used letters in the corners of the keys, that would unclutter the "O" key.
However, I suspect that having all of the letters arranged like they are helps to minimize stylus movement. You're almost always moving the stylus near the center of the ANI pad or toward the center.
