The vinyl protective shield labels come off the roll pretty easily and hold on for dear life to whatever I stick them to so far.<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>As for speed, I'll worry about accuracy first. :)<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>I find that half the letters I write are mirrored the wrong way after getting past the first couple of letters.
