Thinking Of Getting One

Currently with the iPhone 3G, thinking of going and getting one on the 5th. I have a G1 collecting dust; how is the keyboard and the usability? I have the keyboard as I upgraded the G1 to Android 1.5 before I deactivated it back in June, and it's not too bad. Thoughts?

the on screen keyboard is very sensitive and if you leave prediction on it likes to change words on you even though you spelled what you wanted correctly, very tricky, but there is a thread on tmobile's mytouch forum and it has a link so you can install a better version of the keyboard

Its a great phone and looks really nice, smaller than the iphone. As for the keyboard the default one is nice but I've been using Better Keyboard from the market. Its $2.99 but you can use customized skins and is a little larger than the default one. Also supports swipe gestures. I prefer that one over the default keyboard and I hate the HTC keyboard.

This does seem pretty decent, I've been thinking about getting an unlocked Rogers one to use with AT&T. I just want to see the benefits of the Hero vs. The Magic. That is if they do release a NAM version of the Hero as promised.

It appears Sprint is getting the Hero in October. If it has the Sense UI and EVDO, AND supports simultaneous data and voice (cmon' Sprint, get with it), I might be sold. The MyTouch will keep me happy until then.

Great, thanks for the input on the keyboard. I"m really really fast on the iPhone keyboard but I found on the G1 I was much more slow and deliberate when typing.
