I agree entirely. My handwriting is not readable (nor fast enough to be 
viable), but typing is at least legible (if frustratingly slow!!). I would 
like to suggest playing games to improve memory, often you want to jot down a 
piece of information (a phone number, address, appointment) when it would be 
difficult to fire up a laptop. Having a good memory is a real boon in these 
situations.

Cheers
