Whether it actually has an effect on recipients or not, I see
the "Sent from a mobile device" signature as a subtle plea
that really reads "please don't judge me too harshly for any
typos in this message, and if I sound rude or terse please
understand it's probably because typing on phones is horrible
so I'm trying to make it quick."

Maybe I'm just crazy but that's my thought process :-)
I don't think you're crazy at all, Matthew, because THAT makes perfect
sense! Thanks!
There must be at least a few people who feel the same way. I just noticed a
coworker at my current employer has the phrase his phone adds set to:

Blundered out from my iPhone

Now that I have access to work e-mail on my phone, I think I'll try to find
that setting in my phone and set it to the same in case I ever have to
resort to sending an e-mail from my phone.
