8125/8525 users can practice text on screen

Yes as us 8525 users know. theres a feature that allows us to use either the screen or the keypad(tactile) to send text email etc. Since that particular phone offers tactile , this is what I've used. But with the IPHONE nearing its launch is anyone practicing with their 8125 or 8525 or any other non tactile key device before the 29th?

I have an 8125. The keyboard in WM can't really (and wasn't designed to) be used with fingers, each button is only ~15x15px, with no space between buttons. Stylus only.

Yes...not exactly perfect I realize. However I've just been tinkering with it the last few weeks with my fingers nonetheless. Agreed that its designed for the stylus...however using my fingers to practice(I'm 6' 1 decent sized fingers) has brought me some joy and recreation in waiting for this phone. I'll try anything that keeps my patience

calm And yes...the lack of space between the letters on 8125 is just awful. Lets go IPHONE!!
