Re: i predict
Sorry mate, I can play guitar effectively, but every attempt at typing tutors has left me throwing my keyboard across the room in frustration.
I will attempt to get in the habit of using the shift key more often
Might I suggest using 'sticky keys'? I've been stuck typing one handed for the last week and a half due to a broken collarbone and using 'sticky keys' has made it much easier. It means you can tap 'shift' before you hit the key you want in capitals rather than at the same time.

Re: i predict
No, it's not like hitting caps lock, 'cos it only does it for the next character. It's also a true 'shift' rather than just caps.

Sticky keys
It's a standard part of Windows. You'll find it in the Control Panel under 'accessibility options' on XP, and 'ease of access' on Vista. You might also be able to activate by just pressing and hold shift for 10 seconds, depending on how your PC is set up.
