There's different styles of hunt and peck. For example, I know where all the keys on the keyboard are. So I don't peck- I just don't do the home row and I don't use all 5 fingers (I generally use 4- my index and middle on each hand, my thumb on my right for spacebar, and my pinkie for shift). And I type over 50 wpm. True, if you don't know the key locations by heart you won't be able to type at any decent speed, but so long as you have that even 2 finger typing can be pretty fast.
