as an apple user, i find typing to be fast, not because of the layout but the good predicting algorythms apple uses.. say im typing "student" even if i mistype 3 of the letters it still types in the correct word.. this has put me into a bad habbit of juast bashing the keyboard and letting the text completion do the work for me
on the omnia, he had a finger touching the screen on the bottom while he was typing .... so the phone couldnt recognize him hitting the keys, which is why they werent responsive
this isnt a fair test, this guy is an iphone power user, of course he is quickest using it. i own a htc touch pro, and have resco keyboard installed (virtually the same as the iphones) and every single time i am typing im alot faster with my slide out keyboard. i have done a test of my keyboards too (all on touch pro) taken on average of 3 turns results. resco keyboard: 45sec shapewriter: 48sec phone keypad: 1:24 Compact Qwerty: 1:11 letter recognizer: 1:57 transcriber: 1:23 slide out: 37sec
yes this test is not considered "fair", but when he tests the other keyboards, you cannot say anything about the experiment being "unfair". Although he is a verteran iphone user, he has most likely never touched the other 5 phones. Basically, if you are trying to determine which of the phones ( except the iphone) has the best, fastest, and easiest keyboard, than this test has no flaw with it whatsoever.

no matter which phone you buy.. its going to take a while to get used to the keypad..
i personally prefer a qwerty keypad.
like on the touch pro and xperia.
each to his own i guess :]

this is really no comparison, best way to compare things is to go to a retirement home, and let the elderly use the device and get your results.

true, but then you would only be testing the ease of each device, and not the speed at which one can type on each phone
