FasTap Video Diary

[Rocco Augusto]

<div class='os_post_top_link'><a href='http://www.phonescoop.com/articles/video_fastap' target='_blank'>http://www.phonescoop.com/articles/video_fastap</a><br /><br /></div>"<i>We recorded our adventures testing the FasTap keyboard over the course of ten days. The FastTap is designed to make text entry faster by adding a key for each letter around the traditional numeric keyboard. We practiced daily and clocked our speed to see if the FasTap is actually... fast.</i>"<br /><br />Over at Phonescoop, "the new Myth Busters," the staff has put together an interesting video that everyone should go check out. It might be a little off topic from our usual coverage, but it certainly is amusing. A nice way to kick off the weekend! :)

Very cool video. I would have thought something like FastTap would be lightning fast compared to T9. Guess not. I would like to see them re-do these test and include a QWERTY based device in there too.

That is definitely a myth buster. I have always loved T9 and always will.

The QWERTY Q came close to rocking the boat, but T9 is still good given the compact keypad foot print.
