Smartphones with thumbboards are all the rage these days for sending email on the go, but I don't think anyone has ever done a speed test to see which one has the 'fastest' thumbboard. So, I put my testing hat on, rounded up all the smartphones 'in da house', and decided to put each of the thumbboards through their paces."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/parekh-20070822-JennethThumbboard.jpg" /><br /><br />Jenneth Orantia, <a href="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5032">onetime Fitaly champ</a> and overall PDA text entry speed demon, decided to do a comparative evaluation of a number of smartphones' thumbboards, including various WM devices, over at Gear Diary. If you're curious what kinds of thumbboards makes for a fast typing experience, you'll want to take a look.
