I'm seeing many fingerprints on my new tablet, and I'm wondering what the best way is to clean it. Research tells me a microfibre cloth dampened with regular water is sufficient. Do the Buffista experts concur?

I just do microfiber. No water needed.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Trying the handwriting keyboard on the Note for the first time. The recognition is great, and I am okay with the delay since it lets me GO back and insert missing letters where there is room . The capital recognition is hair trigger (see above) and I haven't worked out how to write a comma yet.
General thumbs up, though. Hey! Comma!
All Keyboards should keep word options in their buffer so you can pick from them on reread. CASE.

The fact that Swype does this and Swiftkey doesn't is the only reason I still sometimes prefer the former.

It's the big weakness of the handwriting recognition. If Swype does this one day too--I may never put the stylus down.
You know the Samsung ads where onlookers ask questions? That was me, in the doctor's waiting room. Very funny. It understands my writing! Here are my widgets! Look at my open apps!

It is fine to have handwriting recognition as an option. But I hope handwriting never becomes the primary option on computers. Cause given my handwriting I would be completely screwed.

I love that it's good with cursive. Actually better in some scenarios. Woot! And it's less of a scramble/compromise than voice so far.
The thrill will wear off, but if my stylus is already in my hand for other reasons, it's a great option.

Hey. New board.
I have found thst cursive is almost always better for handwriting recognition than print. When it knows what id the entirety of the word it is far more likely to guess the correct thing even with incorrect letters.
