Tariq- COMPLETELY!
I find that I need to be much more accurate with a physical keyboard than I do with a virtual one. I hated the iPhone’s virtual keyboard at first but once I started “trusting” the keyboard it became the best keyboard experience I have had to date.

This is especially so since July 11- most of the time I am able to use the iPhone’s keyboard in landscape thanks to an assortment of apps. That, combined with the predictive text makes a huge difference.

You love the virtual keyboard on the iPhone which has a smaller width than that on the Android and you say the Android’s cramped? Are you serious?

That being said, I do agree that lack of symmetry and I’m waiting to see how that would play out there.

Wayne: Remember the 2G iPhone that was released last year for like $499 (or was it $599? I can’t remember). That went out to sell out crowds. I think the Android would as well considering the number of people waiting for it.

I find phones that slide to be inconvenient — at all the wrong times. I’ve always had problems with them opening when I go to put them into a belt case.

This is also one butt ugly phone.

At $200 after contract the only one buying this thing is the early adopters.
