Oh hell yes, sign me the fuck up.
A decent phone with a real keyboard? Why has no one made these in the last half-dozen years?
Many, many people want a physical keyboard. Huh, right, the market is efficient and all that. I guarantee that I can type faster on that than nearly anyone can text on a touch keyboard, except for those people who practice to enter the text speed-typing competitions.
An actual usable keyboard on a phone sounds great. Unless it is totally horrible, it’ll be my next phone.
That’s pretty much why I hung onto my magic ink phone way past the point of useability. It’s painful for me to type on a touchscreen, especially with autocorrect.
I haven’t tried Blackberry style keyboards.
I had two Blackberries, don’t remember the models. The first one had a great keyboard. I could type nearly as fast on it as I could a real keyboard.
The second the keys were far too small — and my hands aren’t that large for male hands.
God, I miss my physical keyboard. Touch keyboards can’t begin to compete.
I hate touch keyboards (Swype forever!), but I long for a phone with decent specs that fits in my little hands.
