bluebeardSoo... I suppose a few of you saw the announcements about that AlphaGrip typing joystick thing a few days ago.
I was curious about it, and noting the site always says you can hit 50-60wpm, I wrote the guy to ask if you could go faster. I do up to 100wpm on a qwerty keyboard, and while a less stressful input device would be great, I don't really feel like slowing down.
He writes back today to say that only he and his business partner have actually typed with the thing for any amount of time. All their statistics and averages are based on those two. He says he types 60wpm on a standard keyboard, and his partner hunt-and-pecks. He calls that a control group?
Whaddaya know, another company selling bullshit.
