I knew something like this would come.

My TI-Nspire calculator has the alpha keys ordered alphabetically and now that I'm so used to QWERTY keyboards it really screws with my mind.

I'm pretty sure that was a myth; the QWERTY layout was designed to increase typing speed by preventing jams in old typewriters

Marketing BS at its finest.

Pretty sure it means if they were designed in alphabetical order they'd get jammed thus making typing slower. By making it harder to type by keeping the most commonly used letters away from each other, less jamming would happen, thus making it faster.

I will stick to QWERTY. Easy to use. All of the most common letters are right around your fingers if you have them properly placed on ASDF and JKL;. I feel that the number of mistakes on mobile phones is due to not so great software. I make a lot of mistakes on my iPhone, simply because the buttons a really small and trying to type really fast with no feedback whatsoever (unless I'm looking straight at the keyboard and not the text area) is a difficult task to accomplish perfectly. We can only hope the iPhone 5 improves this issue.

Already gone through this, read the rest of the thread.

Short recap:

The idea of QWERTY was to keep the most commonly used letter pairs separate on the type bar. This was what prevented jams. It was not intended to slow down the rate at which the keys were pressed. If that were the case then when typists learnt the new layout after a month or so it would have stopped working.

Keeping the most commonly used letters away from each other would only slow you down if you used one finger to type.

For example, put your hands in the normal typing position and try typing "MN" or "ZA" - pretty slow as you probably use the same finger.

Now try "ZO" or "MO" - the keys are further apart but you can type them faster, provided you use more than one finger of course.

Separating common letter pairs can actually help to increase the rate of typing.

it will be impossible to play games on this new layout. Imagine having WSAD keys placed differently and using them for maneuvering... this guy really hasnt thought it through...
