We wouldn't be surprised to hear that kids nowadays can text on a mobile phone as fast as they can type on a traditional keyboard. Perhaps anticipating such a trend, someone's designed a USB keyboard for PCs that's structured like a mobile keypad, to give free rein to all those nimble-fingered young pups.
It's called the Cr8txt keyboard, which works with PCs, Macs and Xbox 360 consoles, and comes with a dictionary and SMS slang translator, which will help us old fuddie-duddies get to grips with 21st century text-speak.
It's available to buy now, and costs £49.99. You might not think it's worth that much money, but if you have a teenager, chances are it'll (possibly) double their essay-writing speed.
