Study finds iPhone texting 2x slower than QWERTY

But that promotion is taken back due to the lack of any regard for anyone else's safety.

Is that text message worth killing a family? It can happen in the blink of an eye.

Sorry it is just a MAJOR pet peeve of mine to see others doing all types of stuff while driving.

Texting while driving is dangerous, but so is talking while driving and listening to the radio while driving. Luckily for us the US government is slowly but surely making those dangerous things illegal to do while driving.

I find that I can either type faster than the screen can register sometimes, or the screen is really finicky with multitouch. So it starts skipping letters. Kind of annoying since I'd have to go back and correct the mistakes.

It may be 2x slower, but at least your texts don't make it look like your a 15 year old girl

ef u no wht im sayn

I was wondering if any of the texts that they were supposed to type had a combination of letters and numbers to represent words. You know that is how 15 year old girls type.

I better study would have been to take a sample of 30 users, 10 BB users, 10 "multitap" phone users, and 10 iphone users and have each group test all three devices. I think that you would fins that the study would prove that when you switch from your current device that you are used to, it takes a little while to get back up to speed.

After I learned to trust my iphone keyboard, it usually gets most things I type correct, and over time it gets better, as it learns the strange words I use that are not part of the English language.
