Pedro Matias Sets New Texting Record At Mobile World Cup 70
Pedro Matias showed off his mad txtin sklz at this year's Mobile World Cup and managed to set a new record for "fastest, most accurate" texts as determined by the event's corporate owners. "history was made when Portugal's Pedro Matias set the new World's Record for texting by typing a 264-character text in just 1 minute 59 seconds (besting the previous record by 23 seconds). Of course, each Mobile World Cup must have its share of controversy -- in this case, Engadget Mobile's very own Chris Ziegler led a silent protest during the awards ceremony. The group was reportedly upset over the use of QWERTY phones (the LG enV3 in this case) to break the record."

His record sadly fell 38 minutes later when 13 year old Samantha Johnson entered the competition.
"Yeah, I was nervous entering the "Open" division, but my 10 year old brother competed in it last year and won, so I had confidence. The thing I'm the most proud of is winning the 12-14 age group, as everyone knows that's the toughest division to win." Before departing, Ms Johnson added "Old folks fail, amirite?"
Back to you, Jeff.
