Study suggests iPhone users are poor at texting

iPhone0011B.jpgThe iPhone’s revolutionary multi-point touchscreen interface although known to be a little fiddly at times, should still be better than a miniscule QWERTY pad alternative, right?

Wrong; according to a new study by User Centric, texts sent with iPhones are more likely to include mistakes than those sent with a more traditional QWERTY keypad. The study revealed that while iPhone texters were just as nimble fingered as QWERTY users, they made more mistakes while typing their message and left more mistakes in when they sent them.

Although fairly damning, the study points out that a significant portion of the iPhone users were not aware of features such as the magnifying glass correction option which makes reviewing what you have written much easier. Or maybe the iPhone just attracts poor spellers *joke*.
