Hands on: O2 iPhone, officially this time

Typing on the iPhone takes practice, and Apple advises that you try using one finger first before you use two thumbs. The predictive text mode works well, but we're still not sure this is as easy as using a mechanical keyboard.

When you press down on certain letters, the iPhone will pop up variants of it, which is particularly useful if you text in different languages but want to keep a UK keyboard layout.
