I use jot, and when I use it on my prism, my pen doesn't show up on the screen. Is this happening to anyone else?

Issue with Palm OS not Prism

Howdy gmaass,

Yep, you have found a bug. To reproduce the problem, go to the 'Memo Pad' application and start writing on the screen. Your Pen strokes do actually show up on the screen, you will see them as speckles in the area of the title bar. Additionally you may notice that the 'Mode Marker' (the triangle) is not showing up on the screen. These are known issues that surfaced with Palm OS 3.3 (and later) and are not due to any known problem with the Prism.

I called CIC www.cic.com and was informed that Jot has not yet been tested on the Prism, but that the problem that I reported were a Palm OS issue that surfaced in Palm OS 3.3.

I was told that the latest version (1.2.1) fixed that problem and added some additional functionality. Since I purchased Jot (version 1.0) from CIC, they were more than happy to e-mail the update to me.

I just installed it and it works fine. So I would recommend calling them (or e-mailing them at: [email protected]) and ask them how to obtain the 1.2.1 update.

When they send you the update, make sure that you follow these steps to Install the new version.

• Disable JOT (uncheck the "Enable Jot" box)
  
• Delete Jot from the Prism (1 file)
  
• Soft reset your Prism to clear the memory
  
• Install the new version of Jot (Hot Sync)
