Hello,
I've been using your PlecoDict software for over a year, and it's been a great help in my Chinese studies. I was wondering if you had considered adding Double Pinyin or some sort of abbreviated pinyin capability to the new PlecoDict. I look up a lot of words by Pinyin (probably more often than I look up characters I don't know), but I'm not very fast in typing with the "virtual keyboard" on most Palms. I think a desktop version of PlecoDict would be great (so I could use my typing speed on a real keyboard), but I'd still really like to see some faster way of typing in Pinyin on the Palm. Have you considered creating a PlecoDict-only soft keyboard that would display syllable components (e.g. -ao, -iao-, -ong, -ang , etc.)? Even just an "ng" button would be helpful.
