I am sure there are ways to improve --- but is it worth it? A disappearing art, more of a hobby like riding a horse instead of driving a car, if you ask me. I bet 20 years from now hardly anyone will be able to write cursive anymore, except for his/her signature. And typing is so much faster, in some languages several times as fast. I use handwriting on the reader because the screen is so much bigger than on my phone and I usually have my reader with me when when I visit customers. Bigger is also better for showing writings and drawings to others.

Still, sounds interesting, definitely will have a look.
