I've mastered the ability to touch-type on the Blackberry since my 8700g. It comes in handy when you're walking in the street and need to respond quickly. I'm still adjusting to the 8900 keyboard since it is slightly different from the 8320 but I'm sure I'll be touch-typing in no time.
i type pretty fast on my bb since ive had a qwerty before. a few weeks ago i realized i didnt even need to look down. great skill for class aha which i shouldnt be using my bb in but its so addictive!
i type pretty fast...actually faster than I ever did with T9. When I'm texting in front of my friends they are like how in the heck do you do that? I just tell them its skill.
