Wondering how fast you can type on a iPhone? Well, now you can actually find that out thanks to the new service intuitively called “iPhone Typing Test“. The web service calculates the number of words typed per second or per minute. www.iphonetypingtest.com

I never did a typing lesson in my life, but have been keyboard bashing since early 70's so...
not really sure what this specifically has to do with iphone though

I guess you're supposed to do it on an iPhone....

yeah, I read the "about" page but surely it can be done on any online device or is there something special about typing on an iphone compared to an M600 or WM device?
actually I should try it on the M600 as I've gotten quite fast on that now

I think they are just trying to prove a point!
Posted by masseur
probably...
btw, I cheated (oops!). my best speed was around 65 wpm
Posted by fatreg
anything above 70/75 wpm is pretty impossible I think...

An average typist reaches 50 to 70wpm, while some positions can require 80 to 95 (usually the minimum required for dispatch positions and other typing jobs), and some advanced typists work at speeds above 120. As of 2005, Barbara Blackburn is the fastest typist in the world, according to The Guinness Book of World Records. Using the Dvorak Simplified Keyboard, she has maintained 150 wpm for 50 minutes, 170 wpm for shorter periods of time, and has been clocked at a peak speed of 212 wpm. Blackburn failed her typing class in high school, first encountered the Dvorak keyboard in 1938, quickly learned to achieve very high speeds, and occasionally toured giving speed-typing demonstrations during her secretarial career.

That been said some of you should be in the Guiness Book, or will they not accept cut and paste
