It seems to me that it has.

Update a few days later: I have now encountered the latency. It’s as if I’m writing faster than the Elipsa can render. I am comfortable writing, being able to predict where the letter forms are supposed to be despite not being rendered yet and being able to “see” where to cross Ts and dot Is, but I can understand how the lag would give some people trouble. I was writing about two to three letters ahead of the Elipsa. I don’t often see the lag that bad. However, the Elipsa also crashed while I was writing. Also, the lag returned. Eventually, it seemed that I had come to the end of the advanced journal. No new space was being generated. Also, I noticed that some parts of letters disappeared as I reached the end, and the eraser stopped functioning no matter how many times I refreshed the page.

Then I tried to export my journal, but the Elipsa forgot the WiFi access just for the exporting, which failed. Even saving to “Computer” failed. Dropbox could save to text, but the text version of the journal ended up being incomplete. After I rebooted twice, I found I had to enter the journal and export from within there to be successful on all formats and locations. Tapping on the journal’s icon to access export in the drop down menu did not work.

At any rate, after a reboot, my Elipsa is working fine again. That journal is working fine. The lag has disappeared. I now know that when encountering the lag, I should quickly save what I’m doing and reboot. It seems to be a harbinger of doom. LOL
