It becomes very difficult to highlight text as one needs to move the cursor one line \word at a time testing your patience! . I suggest a solution to increase the granularity of the cursor movement such that it becomes very easy to directly access any spot on the screen using just 2 key presses. This can be done by mapping the screen to a 9x10 grid and assigning the first two rows of the keyboard as indexes to the grid cells. As shown below if the user need to reach the middle point of the screen he just needs to press T and G!. After aligning the cursor one can highlight and also invoke a probable note taking feature.
Is anybody out there to implement this feature?

Q W E R T Y … P

F
G T,G=center of screen
…
L P,L=right corner
