Cre8txt Desktop SMS Keypad
Posted on Nov 12, 07 02:00 PM PDT
This keypad will let you feel the pain of typing text messages on a desktop PC. If you don’t speak “SMS shorcuts”, it comes with software that translates SMS slang into normal English. Unless you’re training for the SMS Olympics, I don’t see why you would ever get one.
Marketing Pitch
Mobile phone communication platforms have been using SMS text for a considerable time, and that has caused the development of a whole new language "SMS Text Slang". Originally developed to save space on the then restricted 160 character text messages, it substitutes shorter character combinations in place of longer words. Young people have developed this language for both mobile phone use and PC messaging platforms. This audience is both competent and efficient users of this technology. (Cre8txt page)

Oh great, just what the world needs! A device that furthers the dumbing down of the languages of the world. Inspired.
