Will I have to retrain to type with the SmartBoard™?

No. SmartBoard™ retains the standard QWERTY format, so each finger

types the same letters as on a standard keyboard. However, depending on

your typing skills, it may take a short time to adjust to the slightly different

key positions on the SmartKey™ Please find your typing skill level below

to determine the quickest way to get acquainted with the SmartBoard™:

0-30 Words per minute (WPM): If you are familiar with "split" key-

boards, you will not have any problem. Just take the 2 Minute Typing

Retrainer below once or twice, and you should be typing at your old

speed. After a day, you should begin to notice that you are typing faster.

If you haven't used a "split" keyboard before, it may take you slightly longer

to adapt. Just give it a little time and you will be happy with the results.

31-50 WPM: At this typing speed, you may have to adjust to a couple

letters. In particular, you may find that you are mistyping "C", "V" and "B".

That is because, on the standard keyboard, your fingers have to reach

down and to the right to type those letters. On the SmartBoard™, the

letters are directly under the "D", "F" and "G" - exactly where your fingers

naturally reach. Typos may happen because your fingers are used to reaching

over to the right, when all they have to do is just naturally reach down.

To adjust to the SmartBoard™, just (1) take the 2 minute typing retrainer

and (2) each time you have a "C", "V" or "B" typo, type "bob the avocado

cob". At the end of your first day you should be at your old speed, and

by the third day your should be typing faster.

51+ WPM: At this level, your fingers are very tuned into where the keys

are, so you will probably mistype some letters initially. In addition to the

"C", "V" and "B" keys, you may also have to slightly readjust for "N" and

"P". To get used to the SmartBoard™, just follow the instructions directly

above. Most typists at this level will adjust by the end of the first day and

will be typing faster within the first week. Please be patient - it will pay

off with faster, easier typing.

The 2 Minute Typing Retrainer

The easiest way to adjust to the SmartBoard™ is to just type. Complete

the following drills once or twice (or until comfortable), and you will be

typing faster and easier in no time.

Repeat 3 Times:
