Thanks for the link. I don't know about the typing speed vs. keyboard

There may have been something on page written in another language. One letter

Hi for those that have the iPhone 5.
Are any of you using the life proof case and how do you like it?
What made you select that case over the otter box cases and witch model
of life proof do you have?
Also is it heard to hear voice over and or any other sounds that you are
playing on the phone
I certainly wouldn't have a problem using a touch screen on anything, as long
as it had speech or some other feedback. For most remotes, that would beat
pushing buttons and hoping they do what the manual seems to indicate in its PDF
