For you QWERTY users

Looking to upgrade a Cellular South phone and may go the Blackberry route. How hard is to get use to the qwerty keypad? Put my hands on one in the store the other day and the small buttons along with the different keypad seem difficult. Is it really easier than predictive text on a regular keypad?

Easier and faster than predictive. I did not think I would like it but I love mine. Probably do around 250 text per day.

I adjusted easy to this phones keypad.

QWERTY style only way to go for me since I'm used to typing on computers. I hear they are good phones.

no problems here but like one of the other guys I work on computers. I like my blackberry.

Haven't used the regular keypad in 6-7 years. My work forced me to convert from a Treo 650 to a Blackberry 8830 about a year and a half ago, and I went kicking and screaming....but not anymore. The Blackberry is a 10 times better phone/pda than anything else I've ever used.

Also I'm traveling a lot now, and I'd estimate that 97% of the phones I see in airports are Blackberrys of some kind.

No problemo.
