Hi Divyanshu, It does take a while to get used to a querty keyboard. You do not have the cognative load of thinking which key is for which character. On the other hand, I find that I am typing more slowly on a querty keyboard since I am still using one finger of one hand. On a computer keyboard, I can use both hands to type which is very efficient.
As for handsets, the Nokia E72 is a good choice. I have heard good things about the Nokia X6. The use of Nokia maps is debatable. Yes, the program is accessible but the maps are not good. I am in New Delhi and cannot find a number of places. For instance, sector 12 of Rohini is not present or rather, I could not find it when I had to last search. Google Maps are superior to Nokia maps in terms of maps quality. As far as I know, Google maps are only accessible on the Android platform. There appears to be one problem with them though. You do not get turn-by-turn voice guidance when you plot a route. I do not have first hand verification of this. There is plenty of community support available for Android phones. There is a list dedicated to accessible Android phones. I cannot remember its name.
