Well there's the benq Blackbox concept out there which is essentially a phone that has a touchscreen all over that does show context sensitive buttons. However, I'm not entirely sure if the average user would even WANT to deal with touchscreens over a real keypad. Many even complain over the Razr style touchpads... In Asia that's not much of an issue but I imagine in the West ist might very well be. For one thing, my parents never cared for the touchscreen in my P900 PDA phone...
