Hmm, your way is a bit tricky but can be done if I got use to it, smile. But I think I'll stick to my way. On 2009-11-07, at 5:52 AM, Donna Goodin wrote: > > I think my thumbs are a bit keyboard-impaired. :) I couldn't text > with them when I had a physical keyboard either. Just for grins, >

Actually I just broke down and purchased one of the Otter cases, which although expensive, are well worth the money. I also like the fact I can get a really good grip on the phone. It does add some bulk to the overall size, but it's still well worth the $49 I paid. Damn that is expensive

Lol! Yeah, I do find I hold the phone with one hand if I'm in a moving vehicle. That's one situation where typing is kind of tough. Cheers, Donna On Nov 7, 2009, at 6:18 AM, Scott Howell wrote: > > Donna, now you watch that middle finger. :) > Yes I agree that it really comes down to what wor

I think my thumbs are a bit keyboard-impaired. :) I couldn't text with them when I had a physical keyboard either. Just for grins, though, I'll play around with that today and see if I can do it. Let me know how you fare with my method. Cheers, Donna On Nov 7, 2009, at 3:13 AM, May McDonald

Nic, all I can tell you is that you'll either switch or not. You'll either learn to type on the iPhone or not. I hate to say it, but it really is that simple. I have done more typing on my iPHone than I have ever done on the MOtorola Q9 I had with Verizon Wireless and it had a physical key

That's what I'm telling you. If you hold it in one hand it do it just right then you can use your thumb and pointer. On 2009-11-06, at 5:27 PM, Scott Howell wrote: > > Yeah, but I want to find a way to hold it with the same hand I'm > operating it with . :) I guess if I had two thumbs and two

Hi, I'm definitely considering one as well. I went to an Apple store and fell in love with it, and ever since, I've been dreaming of it. I even dreamed about tweeting on the iPhone last night, and woke up thinking I'd just grab my iPhone and check my tweets. But no such luck. It's not the
