We all know that it is a little difficult to enter the alphabets on a cell phone, but what if we went about it in a different way and designed the phones so that instead of using the same button for several letters we could press and hold two buttons at the same time to get to certain letters. Would that make things harder or easier. For example press and hold 1 and 2 buttons at the same time to enter the letter I . there are enough combinations to cover all the alphabets without having to press the same button over and over.
