Think you’re a whizz when it comes to high-speed SMS? Really? How fast could you type this message - ‘Does everybody here know the alphabet? Let’s text. Here it goes … AbcDeFghiJKlmNoPQrStuvWXy & Z! Now I know my A-B-C’s, next time won’t you text with me?’
If you could do that in under a minute with no mistakes, you’re going to kick yourself. That’s what a chap called Nathan Schwartz just did to win LG’s National Texting Championship in the US, walking away with $50,000 for his trouble. He did it with LG’s enV handset apparently.
Hang on, that opens out to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard! If people are allowed to claim superfast texting times using keyboards, I don’t know what the world is coming to. Still, congratulations to Nathan. Someone should launch an iPhone version of the above competition, except allowing 58 mistakes or so to take into account the on-screen keyboard…
