iPad Typing Speed Tests (4 Keyboards + 1 Dictation App)

Testing different input methods for the iPad:
On-screen keyboard in portrait and landscape mode, Apple Wireless Keyboard, Think Outside Bluetooth Keyboard, and Dragon Dictation

I used the following pangram to show the typing speed of each keyboard:
"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."

You're pretty efficient on the ipad keyboard. I don't really like typing on the ipad though. The iphone 4 is so much easier with 2 thumbs and i can go at lightning speed with that.

I'm thinking of getting a keyboard...I am a speed typist ...did data processing for years

@mmmnnn999999999 well you are right on that i guess... but you could have typing and voice because some people cant type fast and/or mess up, also many people have to look at the keyboard to know where the letters are, and if you use voice you can say what you want rather than you come up with it and then have to type it and most likly forget something you thought up idk but they are both good (voice and typing)

@sparten018 Because to dictate you really need silent environment, which is rare both in office and at home; also, everyone around you will hear what you dictate, which might be both annoying and non-confidential. Also imagine you would like to listen to some music as you input text; how would that be compatible with dictation?

I say I'd better type.

why don't we use voice so we don't have to type at all?

Great typing on the ipad On Screen Keyboard. But lacking speed on the real keyboards. Its hard to tell since your right hand is obstructed, but it seems like you don't type correctly... you don't actually home row type.
