Heh, that one got me too! I knew what I had typed in so it was merely a
case of transposing it to upper case once the paramedics had passed me
fit to return to the computer! Would have been nice to have a little
note in the manual to that effect though, as surely someone at Acer knew
about that.

No, on the whole it is a nice little machine which is well suited to
purpose. When I think what I paid for my Sharp Zaurus and what I got for
that it brings all the little niggles associated with the Acer One into
perspective.
