Fast typing on an iPhone is easy?

It takes some (short) time to get used to its onscreen keyboard, after which typing on the iPhone seems easy. YouTube’s user “swrtswrt” even thinks that “people who can’t type fast on iPhone are retarded.” Possibly… Then again, my thumbs are not exactly as thin as his… :)

Dusan Belic

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.

    Yeah,

    There is no doubt that it isn’t suitable for larger male thumbs and also I would like to see how fast he can write on that virtual keyboard with no looking? While driving for example. .. .

    T9 is still way faster.

    No way. I challenge you sir! :wink:
    Just kidding, but seriously, the iPhone’s keyboard rivals my physical keyboards on all my HTC qwerty-sliders (HTC TyTn, HTC P4350, as well as my Motorola Q and previous BlackBerry Pearl)

    In fact, I can type that message out faster with one hand. I’ll post a video.
