    Default What device to you type faster on?

    Torch, Storm Series (touch screen / sure-press)

    Bold Series (definition keyboard)

    Curve Series (chicklet keyboard)

    Personally I type faster on a Curve then I have on any other device, i've always enjoyed the sound as you click down on a button, but I missed the definition on the buttons on the Bold series. How about you?

    I typed wild fast on my old Curve. I never really had much experience with a Bold.

    The old curve 8330 was a "BEAST"... I typed extremely well on that BlackBerry device.

    I once did a 1000 word paper on my 9650 in 30 min. Does that count as fast typing ??

    i felt like a pro typing on my old curve 8310. wasn't as fast on my bold and getting pretty darn slick with my 9860 considering it's a touch!

    I was probably fastest on my Pearl 8130...I use to be able to fly on the SureType keyboard with one or two hands.

    It's odd how so many people loved the old 83XX series keyboard. I thought it was really good and after nearly 2 years with my 9700, I still can't type as quickly as I could on that old Curve.

    Oh... looks like I'm the only one who voted on the first option... Its specifically with a Slider Torch and definitely not with Storm... lol

    With a Slider Torch I have the option to use the keypad or not while I still have a big screen...

    I agree with you there. Although, I do think that the new Bold keyboard is pretty good. I amy type a little faster on my 8330, but not by much.

    Fastest on my 9900. Although when balancing my 9800 on a clipboard the suretype was a lot better than any keyboard with one finger.

    My 9900 is faster than any other handheld, and faster than my onscreen Playbook keyboard.

    Bold 9000, I cannot use the curve keyboard, maybe for ease of use, or maybe for the classy factor

    I don't know about faster, but I'm more accurate on a Curve keyboard than I was on my Bold 9650's.

    I don't know if I qualify to vote; since I have only had one BlackBerry device (Bold), and have not tried typing on any other device (besides fooling around with a Torch at a kiosk; but not really typing to get the feel of it). I personally like the "look" of the Bold's keyboard better than the Curve; maybe because the Bold's keys are pushed almost flat (if that makes sense), and I feel more secure when typing. Again, that's nothing against Curve users - that was actually the first BlackBerry I looked at and wanted to get. It's so nice! But I think for keyboards, I'd stick with a Bold.
