Yeah, but what's the world record for number of smartphones you can fit in your mouth?

Despite the party in the UK celebrating the official launch of the Treo 650, you still can't actually buy this smartphone in that country. After my best efforts, all I can find out is that the Treo 650 will be available in the UK soon.

Amazing for just ONE thumb!

But... Why doesn't Guiness have an entry for two-thumb typing? In an informal typing test, I beat him by typing the exact same paragraph in just 1 minute and 21 seconds on my first attempt. I am sure I can type this paragraph in less than 60 seconds, punctuation and numbers included, autotext/autocaps turned off.

I'm also the writer of the BlackBerry Thumb Touch Typist Guide at the www.BerryFAQ.com site.
