Guinness World Record For Typing Set on Treo 650

News - By: pdaBlast! Staff - April 27, 2005


To celebrate launch of the Treo 650 in the UK, Arttu Harkki of Finland used a Treo 650 to set the Guinness World Record for the fastest-ever email on the move using a QWERTY keyboard - using a single thumb.

Arttu Harkki had previously set the Guinness World Record for texting in 2001. Today, he used the Treo 650's full QWERTY keypad to complete this message in just 2 minutes 22.9 seconds.

"The telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell (UK), who filed his patent for the telephone on 14 February 1876 at the New York Patent Office, USA. The first intelligible call occurred in March 1876 in Boston, Massachusetts, when Bell phoned his assistant in a nearby room and said 'Come here Watson, I want you.'"
