I saw a show on TV that put a couple of Morse coding HAMs up against some texting teens. They had to send a short paragraph of text. The HAMs blew away the teens, they were much faster. The teens had a regular phone keypad, not a smartphone with a QWERTY keyboard though.

I still don't get texting. If you have a cell phone, and they have a cell phone, then why enter all those keystrokes when you can just hit speedial and talk to them on the phone?!!
