On March 31st 2007, LG Electronics will be holding a National Texting Championship with the first prize set at $25,000 for the fastest texter.
Context will be held in Hollywood, at Paramount Studios and in New York City, at the Roseland Ballroom.
Contestants must own and use an activated LG enV mobile phone to compete.
In 2002, the mobile network engineer, who lives in Australia, won a similar type of contest by tapping a 160-character message in one minute seven seconds.
The message he tapped out read:
The razor-toothed piranhas of the genera Serrasalmus and Pygocentrus are the most ferocious freshwater fish in the world. In reality they seldom attack a human.
When I tried to type the message above I was clocked at 4min 43 sec.
As you can probably imagine, I am not entering the contest - Klem
