20 words? That's actually a pretty acceptable speed I think. I can achieve about 30 words per minute on a regular cell phone, so I can imagine it will be possible to get there with quickscript or similar, through practice.
I've been playing a little with an idea I had, so I tried putting something together in javascript and php, to see what it would feel like. I believe an approach like this would result in some nice speeds too, after some practice: http://hwiz.dk/moko/ . -Ulrik Derek Pressnall wrote: > Quoting Ulrik Rasmussen: > > Do you know how many words/characters per minute it is possible to achieve? > > I ran some tests a while ago, using the Zaurus version of quikscript, > here's what I posted to a zaurus forum at the time (based on my > personal results): > > : 1) Handwriting recognition: barely 5 - 7 words a minute, due to > recognition inacuracies > : 2) On-screen keyboard: about 15 - 20 words a minute > : 3) Quickscript: Just achieved 20 words a minute, and still improving > : 4) Hardware keyboard: 30 - 35 words a minute > : 5) Normal computer keyboard: 85 - 100 words a minute. > > This was after using quikscript for about a couple weeks or so, and > entering some standard typing speed tests (i.e., "the quick brown fox > jumps over the lazy yellow dog").
