This is one of the best phones I ever owned. You could type nearly as fast on it as a traditional keyboard. It even had a scroll ball as well to act like a mouse. The things I would do for Google to implement something like this in a modern Pixel phone. I hate even trying to respond to people these days from my phone, because of how just how bad touch keyboards are in comparison.
Today’s cell phone companies either don’t know (unlikely) or don’t care (likely) how badly some of us want different formfactors for cell phones, or having actual, decent, physical keyboards to type on. I am tired of the black rectangle (or folding black rectangle) phone. Give us some damn variety!!
