Engadget: New details about the iPhone. The keyboard is the big unknown still, all the features look great but if you can’t email or text efficiently then all those features won’t matter.
The keyboard was simply described as “disappointing”. Keyboarding with two thumbs often registers multiple key presses (two or three at a time) resulting in a lot of mistakes. The best way to type is with a single finger (as shown in most of Apple’s demos), but two thumbs is supposedly very difficult. After trying it for a number of days our source gave up using their thumbs.
