Zombie Feynman disagrees.

How should we interpret the results of this barely-scientific test? First, physical keyboards would appear still to be significantly faster and more accurate than on-screen keyboards, and second, fancy new screen technologies offering haptic feedback don’t necessarily improve typing speed and accuracy, although they feel nicer in use.

My generalization: Iphone users sacrifice function for form. Period. I suppose that is their choice, but it is still appropriate to call a hat a hat. I maintain that arbitrary individuals have a more difficult time writing things out (be it emails, IM's, SMS, twitter, restaraunt reviews or anything else that's drug us away from the 10-key pad) on an Iphone or other on-screen solution than they do on a phone with a physical keyboard.

If you wish to directly refute this point, please at least take the time to cite a source no less lazy than this one, or just round up some phones and reproduce the test yourself.

Thank you.

Always relevant.

Well, this always helps me feel better at dying at their hands. But you're right, its not a question of if, but rather when. But at the end of the world, I'll feel fine. To everything a time. Everything that has a beginning has an end.

I prefer whiskey.

Is GP one of the Blog Re-enactment Society?

No, no, Sony was slammed for creating an environment where people were shot or robbed for their PS3.

Nintendo is off the hook because they created an entirely different environment.
