Freeware for T5

I had a Palm IIIxe for many years and recently got a T5. I used to use freeware such as WordComplete and Keyboard, among others, as enhancements. These seem not to work on my T5. Does anyone know where and if these programs exist for the T5?
 
There are many programs that have not yet been updated to work with the T5. WordComplete and Keyboard seem to work if you revert back to graffiti 1 even on the T5 but won't work with graffiti 2. You can search here or on google on how to revert back to graffiti 1.
 
OK, bad assumption on my part. I just got a Clie TJ37 with OS 5.2 and was able to restore G1 without any problems and now word complete works. Apparently Palm must have learned how many people were switching back to G1 and added something to OS 5.4 so they didn't have to worry about users violating copyright restrictions. Too bad because, for me, G2 really stinks, especially after so many years learning G1.
 
I don't know for sure but I think Palm now has itself in the opposite problem from G1. Before they won the Xerox patent suit, they had already signed an agreement with the makers of Jot that Palm would use a variant of their product on all future Palms and call it Grafitti 2 . By making it easy to switch back to G1, they were now in the position of violating their agreement with Jot. I assume that's why G1 won't work with the T5, since Palm had changed OS 5.4 to make it mandatory that users stick with G2.
