How fast can you TEXT on the iPhone?

I'm a boss wen it comes to txting on the iPhone. I timed myself writing this post from my phone: 12 seconds

I type really fast on mine. It took me a few minutes to get a hang of the keyboard. Texting on it is one of my favorite things about the iPhone xD.

I'm not as fast as some people, but not bad. Definitely faster than on my bb curve. I think virtual keyboards are much faster than physical ones.

I agree virtual keyboards > hardware ones.

Anyway, I played with the phone again today at the Apple store in the Mall of America. I'm half tempted to buy it now, but I cant decide?! Do I just buy it, or wait for current contract to end in May of next year. (10 months remaining, 90 bucks to buy it out using ETF)

I want it, but then when I want to upgrade next year I have to wait til this time again. What do you think?

as AMAZING as this phone is, wait until the ten months are up. by then, there's a good chance a new one will b out or on it's way

Oh my gosh, as much as I could've waited, I wen't into the AT&T store after I posted that, and bought it.

What should I do with it? Right now it's turned off in it's box in my hotel room.. I have a shi**y Acer laptop, which is all I have for a computer so one way or another I will have to sync to this..

I can text very fast. Just don't ask me to type any words that make sense though.

I'm surprised I can type fairly quickly on the virtual keyboard. Most of my friends are prejudice against virtual keyboards but they've never tried using one. And one my friends, a girl, she texts like 24/7 (like most teen girls do) using the iPhone 3G.

Other than JB haha..

Can someone give me a rundown on how to forward my 2 MSN Hotmail accounts to my 1 main Yahoo! account? I set up the Yahoo! account on the phone and would like to have all 3 emails combined.

Thanks also, man this thread has veered off the original topic, so to keep it straight: Ive since gotten "the hang of it" by messing around with the phone and typing notes and such.

When I first got the iPhone, it took me awhile to get used to the screen but now it is much easier and i can text within seconds
