I am wondering if this is a problem specific to the device (HTC Wizard) or the OS (Windows Mobile 5)... but the Macro recorder function is completely broken. As soon as you go into recording mode, the screen taps go haywire as if the screen calibration is lost. A soft reset restores the PPC to a sane state.

I came across your review, so I was wondering if you had a chance to try it out on WM5, and if it was successful.

Also, one more question: the product blurb states that it supports the mapping of soft keys in WM5. Did you have a chance to try that? On my WM5 device, I only see Buttons 1-5, nothing about soft keys.

Thanks,
