I know this girl who can text people so fast like typing. I have always had trouble with typing with my cell phone because of all that several letters in a key thing.
Now that fast texter got a sidekick and she can just text REALLY FAST NOW. How about you, how fast do you text...? |

Really slow. It's like, to find the letter C takes me a couple of minutes cause I always keep missing it.
I never text so I don't need to sharpen my skills. |

I text pretty fast. I usually reply the same minute I receive the message but then I feel bad for replying fast so I just type it out and wait a few minutes before sending it
I got really good at texting on a pad due to AIM on my phone. But the phone I have now doesn't have internet and this phone has all like a keyboard thing so yeah.. |

Hahahaha! Proud to say, I can text fast, and I don't need to look at the keypad and I only need to use one hand. Yeah, getting really arrogant here! Hahaha! The Philippines is called the 'SMS Capital of the World' for a reason.

10 minutes per text. If I try to do it faster I text my friends like "col im hom ill be onl ltr" and my friends (who have keyboard phones) respond, "Speak English!!!!"
I hate cell phones. |

1 hour in a half per letter, I can't text, but when I'm adding contacts or something, it takes me forever.
Dude so many of my friends text like 80 hours per letter. It's crazy. They don't even look at the numbers. |

I type really fast, it kinda hurts my thumb sometimes. I probably take 20 seconds to type a text.

Not too fast, my fingers always hit the wrong button and I don't like waiting for it to skip to the next letter if I'm using letters in the same number button.

10 minutes per text. I read that incorrectly and thought that said "10 texts per minute" and I was like "DAMN, that's a hell of a lot faster than anyone I know!" I used to be tons faster, but since my brother started texting the life out of his cell phone and bringing the bill higher and higher, I had to stop so the texts wouldn't eat so much out of the bank account. Now I take like, two minutes per text. |

Pretty fast. I return text's within like.. less than a minute if I feel like returning them. I'm close to mastering texting without looking at the keypad.

Pretty slow. I have to look for the letters, then see if I spelled it right. It's annoying.

I can text pretty fast. Most of the time I don't have to look at the keypad. When you're trying to text & not get caught you kinda learn to memorize it. ha

I've only had my phone for, like, three weeks, and I'm actually relatively fast with the keys. I do have to look, and sometimes it takes me ten minutes to get back to you, but that's only because I feel my phone vibrating at work, finish waiting on a customer, and then slink off to the back room to check it.

I like to text you when you're in public places... like, the library. |

I suck at texting. I mean give me a keyboard and I can type around 200 words a minute. Give me a cell phone and give me about 5 minutes just to type one sentence. I'm sure if I had to use a blackberry or sidekick and I could do it a bit faster. But on normal phones, no
