Hi, Also, another thing to keep in mind, is that it looks like a qwerty keyboard on the iPhone. Sure, some keys will be placed differently to make room, but it will still be the same. if you know exactly what a qwerty keyboard looks like and where the keys are, that'll help you. At least, that worked well for me in the store. I'm not sure if I prefer portrait or landscape, though, as landscape apparently is not supported in all applications. I was told not to get used to it too much, as an application might not support landscape mode. That definitely has not put me off buying one eventually, though. A friend of mine has one, and I ended up playing with it so much that he was starting to wonder if he'd ever get it back. He even allowed me to read one of his SMS messages, and I definitely enjoyed the threaded messaging system. it just seems more efficient.
