Texting on a modern "smart"-phone sucks. Typing on a featureless flat surface is bad enough, but adding auto-correct to the mix, and random notifications that steal focus (both on the screen, and in real life) are horrible. On top of that they add emojis that have no discernable meaning, and the total loss of all social queues. (On the plus side, I get persistent internet almost everywhere at far, far more than 300 baud, and you can host a VAX 11/780 in it!) I'm glad that I have this nice mechanical keyboard with a cord, and my recently added wired mouse to make things predictable here on my computer at home.
