I'm rather young- and I know how to T9 type- but I got my flipper in middle school.

I honestly quite liked it, not that I ever want to go back now.

T9 works OK, and there are other ways too (such as having to push the button multiple times to specify which letter you meant), but I think Hollerith chording is better.

(Also, I do not have a mobile phone and I think I do not want one.)
