No, the firmware of the keyboard caclulates the WPM ont he fly, penalizes for errors (use of backspace and delete) and displays the WPM as a chart on the OLED of my keyboard including my maximum WPM over a specified period's average.
@freemo I typed my PhD thesis to save money. It was in a mainframe with no formatting until it was printed. My speed was 52 wpm and it took forever.
@SteelFolk I suspect most people would be slower transcribing than they would be tying off the cuff.... That said I have always been an exceptional fast typist.
I've certainly never bothered to care what speed my employees can type.
But there is certainly an advantage to typing fast, you get work done faster even if typing isnt the bottleneck as you cant really do other tasks while your tying anyway.
