The n900 had a _tiny_ keyboard. But it was practical to type are almost normal keyboard speeds. Unlike on a touch screen, where auto correct gets in the way.

- zokier 6y agoN900 benefitted from tinyness, because thumbs could reach all keys easily. On modern-sized phone you'd need to stretch far more to reach the middle with thumbs
