It's always been my understanding that this is how the majority of people type on their smart phones with a querty keyboard or numeric keypad, i.e. using their thumbs. This is how I typed on my last two Symbian phones, which had a numeric keypad and then a querty keyboard. I'm not so sure it's how the majority of people use the touch screen interface on their smart phones. It seems like more people use a pointer finger. I don't have any statistical data though, so this is all just anecdotal.
BTW, I have been giving touch typing another chance, and although it's early, I'm thinking I may end up preferring it over split tapping. I know I've been a big advocate of split tapping, but all of the people on this list talking about how great touch typing is caused me to give it another chance, and I may be glad I did.
