SPH-i500: quality of screen, optional keyboard?
Any comments from SPH-i500 users on whether they've found its lower-rez screen to be just fine, or a source of frustration? I'm mainly interested in how this affects use of contacts, calendar, and long text files or e-mail. Trying to decide whether to get the SPH-i500, or wait for the SGH-i505 which will have a larger screen
I'd also be interested on comments from SPH-i500 users on how they like the more-or-less full-size QWERTY keyboard that's available as an accessory.

I'm not a 500 user but can provide you some comments. First, although I have no use for a PDA phone, I'd personally prefer a Windows operating system over Palm. The one good thing about the 500 compared to like Treos, is that it's dual band and single band. But I do prefer the Qweurty keyboard on the Treos. I have a Palm PDA, and I don't use it because to type letters is utter non-sense. Slashes and crazt symbols to form letters is a waste of time. The Hitachi 1000 is more ideal, Qweurty keyboard, rotating camera, but single band, very large and very expensive. I'd wait on a newer Samsung version that is a flip phone and has Windows.
