examining the need for iphone keyboard tutorials

Since the release of the iPhone a number of websites have popped up offering tutorials to those who are having trouble getting the hang of typing on the mutli-touch keyboard. There are those offering lessons to people who just simply don't understand it and then there are a whole slew of those dedicated to improving your speed and accuracy. As a matter of fact, Apple themselves offer such a tutorial. It's great for those who tossed their Blackberries and other devices with the good ol' tactile keyboards, but they wouldn't be necessary at all if the touch screen was as easy and efficient as it was supposed to be.

The fact that there is a demand for these tutorials is enough to make you wonder if it was worth it to make the switch from the tactile keyboard to the virtual keyboard touch screen. The biggest advantage to the new type of screen is the space it takes up—or rather doesn't take up. Since there is no keyboard taking up half the space of your mobile you are able to enjoy a bigger screen. And that certainly is nice, until you realize that all that space doesn't equal bigger keys or easier typing. People, even the techie ones, are having trouble getting a feel for the keys they can't, well, feel. Tactile keyboards may have taken up space and made your device less aesthetically pleasing, but they certainly didn't slow you down in the emailing or texting department!

After watching some of the tutorials and reading comments from hundreds of others who are having trouble mastering the touch keyboard it is becoming clearer that some sacrifices just aren't worth it when it comes to your mobile device. That's especially the case if you rely on your device to help keep you online and in touch with the office or clients on the go. The point of bettering these devices with more features and functions was not only to make it sleeker and easier to carry but also to help you work and communicate more efficiently. Eliminating the tactile keyboard only helped with part of that equation. And really, how much more difficult is it to carry let's say a Blackberry than an iPhone?

The existence of the tutorials means that there is a need for them or someone wouldn't be bothering to create them. If there's a need, then sadly that means that maybe the touch screen really isn't all it's cracked up to be. If you're one of the thousands who has searched for one of these tutorials or maybe even one of the thousands who has watched the tutorial and still isn't typing with the speed and accuracy that you did before giving up your tactile screen then you may be toying with the idea of giving up on mastering the touch screen.
