Does anyone else who uses the Nokia keyboard find the apostrophe very annoying?

Or is there some fundamental thing that everyone knows but me? I have to hit the key twice to get it to type an apostrophe (or shift and hit it twice for a quote), then if the next letter is an "s" or a few others, I get the little glitch above it (please forgive my un-worldlyness in not knowing what that thing is called). So, it's backspace over that and type an "s".

I don't suppose there's a keyboard map in the N800 that I can alter to make this change?
