Using the method described here, I’ve just tested the Medion / Gigabyte / Tango Wings ultra mobile PC keyboard speed. (Feet up on the sofa.)It’s as I suspected, about 0.4 times my normal typing speed.
Here’s the list of ultra mobile PC keyboards that I know about so far. Where do you think the Q1U will fit in? Having tested it, I think it will be faster than the Medion but not as fast as my favorite sofa surfing keyboard, the split keyboard on the PepperPad 3.
Can someone with an OQO Model 02 run the same test for me?
