It also adds "typing shortcuts" -- a long-time feature of BlackBerry email. With Wide Email, you can add a custom typing shortcuts, add, edit, and delete any number of custom shortcuts.

For example, type "cu", and this iPhone landscape email program will automatically insert "see you later." Or add a custom shortcut that replaces "js" with "John M. Smith, MD, Ph.D." Users can add, edit, and delete any number of custom shortcuts. These quick shortcuts can even automatically insert entire sentences or paragraphs.

Wide Email's landscape-mode keyboard, which is not available in the iPhone's built-in email program, has wider keys that are easier to see and to hit, even for people with big thumbs, according to the folks at LizzardWerks. The app is available at the Apple App Store for US$0.99.
