Writing with your thumbs really makes you appreciate what it is you're writing a great deal more, because it takes some time to get each word down (by comparison to using a keyboard or pen and paper).
So why am I attracted to it so much?
Probably for the same reason that some of the writers I admire, like Douglas Adams or Warren Ellis, do. There's something energizing about being in the middle of the world happening and drawing on it as a source of inspiration, as opposed to sitting thoughtfully in a quiet room in front of a computer.
Granted, there's benefits to be had from that approach as well, for example not typing with your thumbs, but the novelty of this kind of technology has given me a fever.
This fever goes far beyond cowbell. This is the kind of fever that is usually being referenced when someone uses the colloquialism "feverishly fucking". It's hot, it's fast, and it's probably wet.
