Thumbs of Fury.... the fastest deaf Blackberry text user?

Do you think you have what it takes to type 75 wpm (words per minute) on a Blackberry phone QWERTY keyboard? Well, Mark Rejhon, a deaf Blackberry smart phone user thumbs his way into YouTube fame (not smashingly famous but you get my drift) my texting out words with his two thumbs at a rate of 75 wpm. Now, my little birdie tells me that perhaps a similar contest may take place later this year using only the Blackberry smartphone's QWERTY keyboard to become the fastest "thumberry" person alive, and win cash prizes. There's a twist to this contest I'm hearing but won't explain until later (if it is true about the contest and all). So, I guess there's time to practice and get your "thumberry" into hyperdrive. Meanwhile, enjoy Mark's "Thumbs of Fury" as he thumbs his way to 75 wpm.
